  Facebook is getting fast. With some of the previous impression ads it took 24+ hours to get an ad approved. The latest took less than two minutes. (I know, some of you are going to be annoyed that I haven't cut the Facebook leash, yet. I'm an undercover agent in the evil empire.)

  "Jesus didn't preach tolerance" --
Tolerance costs me nothing. Loving others — seeking their good, willing their prosperity and happiness, genuinely desiring their companionship — this is the hazardous business of community, of relationship-building, of making and sustaining friendships for the long haul. Tolerance is all too happy to avoid all this. Tolerance turns out to be a means for keeping us estranged from one another while we pride ourselves on our progressive politics or our general open-mindedness whatever our politics. ~ Debra Dean Murphy in the Christian Century

Love that quote on tolerance. Tolerance for all and everything is not godliness, but sometimes the godly need to be tolerant and unified in the church.
