When we have two opposing forces, in opinions or beliefs, it's important for us to be able to compromise in order to have peace. This is how we divert or block these forces. However, when one side doesn't choose to compromise, then they don't want peace, they want power and control. Many times that comes at a very costly price.
Furthermore, the right attitude is important. Having a hateful or haughty behavior over another's belief, when demanding one's own, shows mental immaturity. It's similar to a child throwing a temper fit because they're told no. That has never solve any situation peacefully.
It reminds me of a quote that says: "God answers all prayers, but sometimes the answer is no." Many times no is the reasonable answer, yet, from my personal observation, some people are too busy pouting to think reasonably. We're becoming a society expecting a yes to every demand. This can create a moral and financial death. It's illogical and unreasonable to even assume this is justified.
Also, how can anyone justify persecuting another while saying they're being persecuted? How can anyone show disrespect to another while saying they're wanting respect? How can anyone be hateful to another while demanding not to be treated hatefully. How can anyone gloat over another's suffering when the shoe was once on their foot? It's not only hypocritical, no matter how one tries to justify it, but it's also shows a lack of emotional and intellectual development.
