I have zero tolerance for their kind and actions. The only world they want is a world WITHOUT ANYONE OTHER THEN THEM! There is no room in the small small world for their intolerance.
This is all very common stuff, and it is not expected to be another way. If you understand what determines behavior, you tend to see it coming. When you drop an apple, it hits the ground. Anger raises the heart rate and causes impulsive actions. Such physical laws are observable and testable, and workable knowledge can be gained by studying them. Actual practitioners of self-cultivation recognize experiences in a different way, and that is what changes the output. The input may be the same, but the output is in accordance with ongoing awareness of such laws and the workable nature of a reasonable mind. Emotional conviction may feel really important and super special, but it tends to enforce rigidity of the ego in an effort to contain and maintain it, which requires a certain amount of uncompromising force. The fulcrum of compromise, workability, harmony and so forth - that is the basis of actual "spirituality". This is why the monotheistic traditions of uncompromising belief are not actually "spiritual" in their actions.
