Points taken. I still however, believe and say that tolerance is what will win at the end of the day.
What I might say after this may sound hypocritical (being a non-practicing Christian or Roman Catholic), but most of us Filipinos take pride in being Christians...I thus wonder, where is Christ's attitude of tolerance (in the beatitudes, He said, if someone slaps you in the right cheek, offer your left cheek too) amongst us? Christ had a message--the more tolerant you are, the better the world will be. But I guess no one really believes in that anymore, right?
As to my level of tolerance, how can I even hear them when I'm trying to figure out how to turn triangular meshes into quads so that I can convert a scanned 3D mesh into sculpties for my use, amongst other things? hihihi I guess it all depends on how busy the mind gets--if it gets really busy, one can effectively shut out all the external "noise" the world generates--I guess you could say it's my own built in "noise-reduction-unit"...and it's been very effective, am happy to say. So it's not really a matter of me tolerating--I simply can't hear them once my brain starts churning lol
