use the term. Welmek [[emphasized]] it's one of the primary aspects of [[character]] a few weeks ago, so I would [[encourage]] someone to start the ball rolling with how they [[understand]] [[tolerance]].

M: I [[thought]] about it, and I think to me [[tolerance]], if I had to define it with other [[words]], would be [[understanding]], [[compassion]], and [[humility]]. I think many times when we're tolerant of something, it's something that we consider to be [[negative]] or un-Godlike; and whether it's a [[person]]'s [[attitude]], [[behavior]]. And so I find it much more [[difficult]] to be tolerant than I do to be [[patient]]. For a long time I thought the two were similar, but I don't think they're similar at all. I think with [[tolerance]] you have to be more [[understanding]] of whatever actions you're being patient with. I think that's understanding; and after [[reading]] the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=UB#Part_IV._The_Life_and_Teachings_of_Jesus Jesus papers] when I was younger for the first time, it's [[amazing]] to me how tolerant [[Jesus]] was with those he came in [[contact]] with. I think he was a perfect [[example]] of tolerance, but [[understanding]] I think is what tolerance is about.

J: [[Tolerance]], to me, has something to do with not being [[judgmental]] of others; and that's one thing I always [[remember]] that [[Jesus]] always said, not to [[judge]] others and to be [[tolerant]] of that. That's a real high order, but I think it has a lot to do with not judging others.
