Sažetak

This paper examines John Stuart Mill’s idea of philosophical tolerance.
The goal of this paper is to show that the role of philosophical tolerance, in the light of the idea of tragic choice, should be extended.
Mill saw philosophical tolerance as a corrective tool by which we can
enrich and correct our own ideas. Tragic choice, however, entails that
certain ideas and values are mutually exclusive. When faced with such a choice, one can not use philosophical tolerance as a method of
justifying one’s own view, but as a tool to accept the loss and the sacrifice that has to be made.
