Tolerance and Intolerance –
. . . . no one can call themselves tolerant. The point I am making is that the question is rarely about being tolerant or intolerant, it really is about judging and not judging.

The Battle for the Mind
The fallacy that an open mind is a good thing is simply that this mind has no guidelines, and no standards. An open mind accepts all that is acceptable to others regardless of consequences.
Who cares what God says!
Approval and acceptance of sin only brings more sin, evil, and death upon mankind. Acceptance only strengthens the resolve of evildoers to commit more evil.
God has a Controversy with the Nations
Man didn’t originate ‘the law.’ Do you possible believe that it was man who could think on such a high moral plain as ‘the law’ or what we refer to as the 10 commandments? Man always seeks the lowest form of morality and the lowest ideals that they call morality.
Rebellion
Everything that man touches he destroys, he sees a view of pristine beauty and he wants to improve it by building on it; he sees an institution formed by God and he desires to destroy it, and in so doing he causes confusion and chaos. Man sees breath taking beauty in animals and he desires to kill them, or cage them. Man sees fresh healthy food and he wants to increase his profits by adding chemicals to it, or taking away nutrients from it. Yes, man surely has a deep seated problem called sin.
Why the First Murder?
What was the motivating factor that drove Cain to violently murder his brother? We are informed from previous verses that the conflict between these two brothers was not merely a disagreement between two, but it was the conflict of Cain with God — Jehovah. Some have considered this to be the first ‘religious’ dispute which led to the first ‘religious’ persecution. Indeed, that is partly true, for on Cain’s part it was about ‘religion’ — man’s religion versus God’s way and God’s Word.
