abstract
The tolerance has become one of the modem combat mottoes. The medieval principal of loyalty to belief and to a sovereign lived down in religious wars. Our era has to deal with intolerance expressed in racism, nationalism, sexism, etc. Generally, intolerance appears to be an invariable that has always been present in human cohabilitation as well as in each individual life. For any living organism this is a biological level; for man this is combined with sensible, sensitive and conative levels, and thus this matter is transferred into ethics. It results in its competence and benefits when evaluating history, as well as the present times and future. Our topic has an objective to attempt to support more specific thoughts with generally ethical data regardless various positions and approaches both of ethical and world outlook nature with, however, regard to the present times. Existential starting points are biological and psychological anthropological invariable: factors that are positing, inspiring but also limiting. Ethics, which attempts to ignore them, cannot be successful. Nevertheless, the man specifics have to be respected: freedom, dignity and spiritual values. The theoretical starting point is represented by values of ethical order, which rates lower values from the perspective of the moral good and evil. The ethical axiology is then followed by the ethical deontology, the order of attitudes and behaviour specific to people and the basis for upbringing of a moral personality. This is a decisive factor for quality of a society, its legislation and liberal cohabilitation. The ethical criteria should be elaborated in the greatest details, in order to allow for correct definition of positive, negative or neutral attitude towards things, events, ideas and people.
