Tolerance – The Last Virtue of a Depraved Society

Hutton Gibson made a very insightful statement recently on The Political Cesspool, and it deserves a place here on Confederate Colonel.

“Tolerance is the last virtue of a depraved society. When an immoral society has blatantly and proudly violated all the commandments, it insists upon one last virtue, tolerance for its immorality. It will not tolerate condemnation of its perversions. It creates a whole new world in which only the intolerant critic of intolerable evil is evil.”
Hutton Gibson

Hutton Gibson is the father of actor Mel Gibson.

This brings to mind another similar quote from another man:

“It is not the evil itself which is horrifying about our times — it is the way we not only tolerate evil, but have made a cult of positively worshipping weakness, depravity, rottenness and evil itself.”
George Lincoln Rockwell

This libertine society of modern-day American in which we dwell has much to answer for. It is our duty to be intolerant of evil and wickedness. The God of The Bible is completely intolerant of sin. He recognizes only one way to cleanse ourselves of sin – that is to come to repentance (turning away from sin) and accepting the gift of salvation by grace through the shed blood of Jesus Christ. Christianity is the foundation of our Southern culture. That is something we must never forget.
