  I definitely have urlLink no tolerance for right-wing Christians. They are a supremely annoying bunch, never ceasing in their endless quest to impose their own morals and beliefs onto the rest of society.
Nor do they have any respect for personal beliefs other than their own. If you're really lucky, after a logic-free chat with them you might even get a smug little "Well, you are going to hell" when it's clear to them that you don't share the same reverance for a poor, blonde-haired, blue-eyed carpenter from the Middle East. Kristof trying to argue that liberals should show equal tolerance for right-wing fundamentalist Christians as they do gays by making inane analogies is ludicrous.
I submit as evidence: Moreover, saying that one will tolerate evangelicals who do not evangelize — well, that's like Christians saying they have nothing against gays who remain celibate. Horseshit! My gay friends don't sit me down and wax poetic about the wonders of gay life and how I should "switch teams". Fundamentalists do. Gays don't try to impose their own set of sexual choices on me. Fundamentalists do. Gays respect my right to be who I choose as I respect theirs. Fundamentalist Christians don't respect my choices and instead, pity me.
Furthermore, what gay couples do in the privacy of their own homes is fundamentally different than some "Jesus Freak" ringing my doorbell and getting in my face, asking if I've accepted JC as my own personal saviour. I have yet to have my doorbell wrung by a well-dressed gay man hoping to extoll the virtues of sucking a man's cock. Except for once a year in West Hollywood during the Gay Pride Parade, my gay friends don't get in my face about their own sexuality.
I'll respect and practice tolerance towards right-wing Christians fundamentalists when they show respect for my beliefs and exude the same tolerance towards me. But they can't it's against their religion! Until then, they can all go to hell...
