This is a heavy proposition that human beings have been facing for a long time.
Many wise men and benevolent people have made unremitting discussions on this.
The famous American writer Hendrick? Long Fang is an outstanding member of these people.
A "tolerance" is his painstaking gift to this intolerant world. This is a historical masterpiece entitled "Challenging Ignorance and Extreme Thoughts", which is the most classic and popular reading about tolerance and freedom.
People who fight for tolerance, no matter how different, have one thing in common: their beliefs are always accompanied by doubts; They can honestly believe that they are right, but they can never turn their doubts into firm and absolute beliefs. Always be ready to strive for tolerance, and always be on high alert to yourself and the world. In Long Fang's view, the starting point of most beliefs is simple, even romantic, but once they are combined with secular rights, they will fall into the trap of utilitarianism and cannot extricate themselves, and a series of terrible and intolerable tragedies will be staged.
The footprints of pioneers are often contrary to the secular. They boldly questioned the wisdom of their ancestors and bravely embarked on an unknown journey. They are not afraid of difficulties and obstacles, built a bridge to happiness with blood and tears, and lit up the unknown journey with burning enthusiasm. Although the road to exploration is full of pioneers' blood and tears, it is still unacceptable for the world to exchange life for a way out. Pioneer, the name of a person who first challenged the dark and horrible unknown world, will eventually lead people to a new world of freedom, but the persecution of pioneer in the secular world is often fatal. Can pioneers really only be worshipped by future generations who accept favors?
People are eager for understanding and hope for peace, but it is undeniable that today in the 2 1 century, this tragedy has not passed, and the tyranny of war, racial discrimination and ideological imprisonment are all calling for tolerance. As Long Fang wrote in his book, intolerance has happened in the past and now, and I hope it won't happen again in the future.
"The day when tolerance will dominate the world will surely come, and it will become progress in human history!" A few decades ago, Longfang was so hopeful. People are always waiting for the arrival of the tolerance period close to heaven, but they never want to start from themselves. In this era when economic material is full of life, people are more likely to lose themselves, lose their way, and become more and more sharp in front of interests, beliefs and nationalities. Longfang's wish has been ruthlessly trampled on in our time. This era makes sharp people sharper and tolerant people more tolerant.
Yes, this world is far from a happy world. It requires everyone, every society and every nation to learn to transcend hatred, ignorance, cruelty and paranoia. Although it seems a little crazy, it does attract many wise and benevolent people to make unremitting efforts.
Learn tolerance. The simplest sentence tells the most essential virtue of human beings.
Tolerance is a virtue and a luxury. As long Fang said, "only people with very developed intelligence will buy it."
So, what about us?
