A word about intolerance

Intolerance. The divisive force that separates you from your friend, your neighbor and even your lover. As in my previous blog, human nature plays a role, it makes appreciate and understand whatever is similar to us. It tell us not to trust what is different. So it takes some effort to overcome it. An effort that can be consciously done and which is greatly facilitated by an openminded, good quality education. So the clue is education, from school and from parents, to defeat that human nature. When I say human nature, I am referring to the things that are inherent to us. So it is probably determined by our genes. And that would mean that the threshold of human nature that education and our conscious effort has to ovecome might be different in different people
