TOLERANCE

In an attempt to show tolerance and celebrate multiculturalism, Stanford University designed its curriculum, hired its faculty and set its policies for students around the theme of political correctness. The result was an abysmal failure.

Two Stanford graduates, David Sacks and Peter Thiel documented the failure of the enforced PC standards in the academic environment in "The Diversity Myth." They tell of black students blacklisted by their peers because they befriended white students and a male excluded from an all-female feminist studies class by the other students.

"What became apparent at Stanford was the degree to which multiculturalism issued in gross intolerance, even though it ostentatiously marched under the banner of tolerance."

—The Long Truce, p. 225 Illustration by Jim L. Wilson

The natural man will never get past the barriers that separate them because of their cultures, races and economic standings. Even the best attempts of social engineering are destined to failure. They only force that can bring opposing ideologies together is the gospel.

Galatians 3:28 NIV "There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. "
