“John, you jerk! We’re living in a pluralistic society! That means you must tolerate everyone else’s views and opinions!”

I’m probably more tolerant than you. Right now, at this very moment, I am tolerating your view that there is such a thing as a ‘pluralistic society.’ I’m peacefully coexisting with you despite your ignorant understanding of reality. We are polar opposites in our views, yet I’m not calling for you to be canceled, punished, ostracized, or executed. You ought to nominate me for a plaque in the ‘Tolerance Hall of Fame!’

You’re not happy about my tone but that’s too bad. Arrogant jerks like me are just as much a part of society as clueless simpletons like you. Your sincere belief that everybody’s opinion is worthy of respect means you must accommodate my smug mockery of that silly belief. Tolerance is for everyone.

Are you starting to wish we didn’t live in a pluralistic society? Well, I’ve got good news for you!

There is no such thing as a ‘pluralistic society.’ It is impossible for two (or more) religions to share power and influence in a culture. One of those religions will dominate the others. The majority view will suppress the minority view. You can whine about how this seems ‘unfair’ but it won’t change anything. You might as well whine about sunrise showing favoritism for the East.

“John, you jerk! Of course it’s possible for more than one religion to exist in society! There are hundreds of religions in the United States! YOU JERK!!!”

Right. I didn’t say it was impossible for other views to EXIST. I said it is impossible for more than one view to DOMINATE. In any society there can only be ONE religion with all the power and influence.

A culture dominated by Christianity would operate on biblical values. This society would make laws prohibiting murder, thievery, lying, and sexual immorality. A society dominated by Christianity would tolerate non-Christians because the Bible commands love for enemies and teaches that vengeance belongs to God. Your whimsical views regarding pluralism are only tolerated in cultures dominated by Christian values! Can you guess what would happen if you suggested ‘pluralism’ in a society under military dictatorship?

You are allowed the folly of pluralistic thinking in the United States because we are a country founded on Christianity. If you are successful in your efforts to create a pluralistic society, I hope we are roommates in the Gulag so I can say, “I told you so.”

(Matthew 13:28) “The servants asked him, ‘Do you want us to go and pull them up?’ “ ‘No,’ he answered, ‘because while you are pulling the weeds, you may root up the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat and bring it into my barn.’ ”

  1. “Pluralism” is the bastard stepchild of the intellectual disaster called “free thinking.” Rational thinking is confined by reality whereas pluralism is not. Reality is defined by “the Laws of Nature and Nature’s God,” pluralism is not.

    Rational thinking which includes the Christian religion, gave us modern science and technology, the US Constitution and the Bill of Rights. All of which freed mankind from a history and prehistory of ruthless tyranny (rule by the stronger) and bone grinding poverty.

    Pluralism is the paved 8 lane freeway back to ruthless tyranny and bone grinding poverty.

  2. I believe that one…”John, you jerk” per article covers it..& anyone thinking you need more… should as Matt Walsh would say “be cancelled”
