Tolerance vs. Relativism

Tolerance vs. Relativism

James Kushiner, editor of Touchstone, gives a succinct refutation of that strange assumption that tolerance requires relativism:

I can tolerate Muslims, Jews, Buddhists well enough, and expect them to tolerate Christiants, when at the same time I believe Jesus, and no one else, is the only Name whereby a man can be saved. We disagree greatly with the other religions, but we can tolerate them. If they were all the same, there would be nothing we would have to tolerate, nothing to put up with.
