Stink
Christian graciousness is often misused by many to allow the presence of sin around us to become more tolerable. "We are not of the world" so we must allow the sin of others to continue and we become mere spectators. We allow others, even those we love and closest to us, to continue in their behaviors in the name of Christian love. The result is allowance of the stink around us. Christian graciousness is not trying to make someone else's sin less odoriferous. It is, in part, always remembering that mine stinks every bit as bad.

Tolerance of "stink" is a product of misinterpretation of "do not judge the splinter in your neighbors eye when you have a plank in your eye." Reading on we are taught to be appreciative of correction. Political correctness & tolerance have gone too far!
