Question for debate: Who is more tolerant, good people, or evil people?
if there’s a Nazi at the table and 10 other people sitting there talking to him, you got a table with 11 Nazis.

I believe one thing has been left out of this conversation. According to whose rules are we to compare good and evil? Killing Jews is good if you're a Nazi or Muslim. Helping Jews is good if you're a Christian or another Jew. But in God's eyes, murder is wrong regardless of race or sex. Note, I said MURDER according to God is evil.
Is lying evil to other liars or for protecting guilty parties? Answer no! Is lying good in the eyes of God? No! So, the answer to this question depends on who is setting the table.
