Define intolerance
 

There.
 
Define indifference
 
Intolerance

"My way, or (insert negative consequence or harsh judgment)."
 
Indifference : the opposite of love.

Intolerance : Seeing one road and everyone there, and not everything else.
 
I see intolerance as active resistance. Indifference is the absence of investment in a particular thing.

Intolerance is a refusal to accept. Indifference is a deep, emotional ignoring.

really? i see intolerance as passive resistance. tolerance on the other hand would be closer to active acceptance :p intolerance to me means letting your unchallenged prejudices take the reigns and dictate how you interact with others, whereas tolerance requires more thought. i do think anyone and everyone has it in them to be both, at different times.

indifference i see as simply not being affected either way about something (or someone). imagine a buoy in the ocean, swaying every which way depending on the tide, vs. an anchor, that's the difference between indifference and caring.
