Steiner says in the following text about the true tolerance. He warns this in no uncertain terms in front of a belief in authority, who creeps into the consciousness of anthroposophy, which deal with Christ a question:
THE MISSION OF THE DISCLOSURE A NEW SPIRIT Senior words on the series "The spiritual leadership of the people and of humanity" Copenhagen, 5 May June 1911, GA 127
fall "initially less obvious, but it belongs to this movement. Therefore, you are such easy movement See those pages misunderstood what confused tolerance with unilateral tolerance to their own views, their own principles and methods.
It is this tolerance before so incredibly easy, but it is one of the most difficult, if it is to conquer the human being in the highest sense of the word. Because no one can easily believe that anyone who says otherwise than oneself, is an opponent. It is easy to confuse their own opinion with what is generally represented as the truth ...

An old morality, which is approaching its sunset, taught to practice love and tolerance between those who have the same thoughts and feelings as we have ourselves. Theosophical life will broadcast the other hand, in its truth more and more in the hearts of the people the much deeper tolerance that will allow us to find ourselves on the ground of mutual understanding, mutual human stimulation and human interaction also because where we do not agree from the outset in our thoughts and feelings. .....
"These days when brilliant wisdom light and warm gifts of love to be broadcast on humanity, must also do something, which confirms the truth of the proposition . Where there is light, is strong shadow - the strong, black shadows that come with those gifts, of which just said was is that the error possibilities with. great wisdom gifts which flow into human evolution will is necessarily connected, that the human heart can be exposed at such times very easy to error. Do we not, therefore, is that infallible than at other times, the erring soul to be in the times which will come here and understand that we need that more are exposed than at any other time, the human soul to the error and the error is. .....
If we now the spiritual guidance of mankind in the eye want to take, we have this notion of error - either on what have with warning hand occultist ever anticipated - the lesson: to practice that highest tolerance, has been the talk today in the opening, and us unlearn everything that belongs to a blind faith in authority, for such a belief in authority can be a strong temptation may just encourage the mistake. On the other hand, we must keep our hearts open and warm for all that in a will flow down entirely new way for humanity from the spiritual worlds.
Therefore, a good Theosophist, above all, be the one who knows: If we within our movement want to be keeper of that light, the flow in the human evolution is, we need to guard against all that on errors at the same time with this light (the light of Christ that Paul saw today and see the man as the essential Christ creep may be).

In this lecture Steiner speaks of the false and the highest tolerance.
The wrong is the one that will only tolerate their own truths. The highest is that you can tolerate different opinions. But it is precisely in connection with the highest tolerance Steiner draws attention to the danger of belief in authority. A belief in authority may be just in relation to the understanding of Christ is a very special tempter to stimulate the mistake. Especially in regard to the question of the ethereal Christ come about after many errors Steiner.
by Steiner, we are encouraged to be open before all that now wants to buy new, but just also practice a special alertness to where a strong belief in authority spreads and a replacement of the independent knowledge and perception
about the Christ
