The colonists in America had varying approaches to religion. Some colonies, like Rhode Island and Pennsylvania, practiced religious tolerance and allowed freedom of worship. However, other colonies, such as Massachusetts Bay Colony, were less tolerant and persecuted individuals with different religious beliefs, such as the Puritans' treatment of Quakers.
The statement that the Puritans were accepting of religious diversity is not true. The Puritans were a strict religious group who sought to create a society based on their own beliefs and did not tolerate other religious practices.
In most modern societies, persecution based on religion is seen as anything from a minor to major human rights abuse. Many religious people see other religions as a threat to them, or as false. In many cases religious people actually believe they are helping others to move away from what they consider to false beliefs. There are many reasons for why this sort of persecution has taken place in the past, but most boil down to fear that one idea will overshadow or threaten another in some way.
Islam and Christianity
Yes, the Catholic Church teaches respect for other religions and promotes interfaith dialogue and cooperation. The Church recognizes that all people have the right to freedom of religion and acknowledges the value of different religious traditions in promoting peace and understanding.
The rosary is primarily a Catholic practice, but it is also used in some other Christian denominations such as Anglicanism, Lutheranism, and Eastern Orthodoxy, albeit in modified forms. It is not commonly practiced in other world religions outside of Christianity.
Rather better than other religions tolerate Islam.
They didn't at first. Over time the realized that it was barbaric to persecute Christians in the colloseum and elsewhere and ended the murders when the Roman citizens spoke up and called everyone out on how cruel they had become.
yes
They beheaded and raped the women of other cultures. As for the men the actions done to them are to brutal to describe.
It's not, but I suppose your teacher wants "because they were a persecuted religion under Roman rule"
No, the Quakers were known for being pretty tolerant of other religions.
tolerance is oxygencreated by the heartbreathed by the soulAnswerasdasds Another answer: In my opinion we should tolerate other religions and have religious pluralism. We should do as most religions teach, namely, to love one another. What we should not tolerate in any religion are the extremist elements.
Generally speaking, Egypt does observe religious freedom. However, there may be extremists who do not tolerate other religions.
I don't think so because Muslims will normally tolerate Christianity above other religions.
As a Christian, you believe in Christianity (obviously) which means that you do not follow other religions. So obviously, as a central philosophy, you are inclined to take it seriously and not sway with it. Christians aren't always "anal" about other religions and will tolerate other religions in nearly all cases, but they still will hold Christianity as their core belief.
Well; if there was no religious tolerance then there would be constant world war, so in most countries, all religions are tolerated and coexist peacefully. Seeing as in most countries, religion has crept in secretly, the government has been forced to tolerate other religions or else face rebellion.
If the Romans persecuted Christians, then they weren't tolerant of all religions! The Roman policy during the development of the empire was to tolerate the religion of the subjugated peoples and to avoid giving offense where possible. Christianity became a notable exception to this policy for a number of reasons.Firstly, the Christians would not bow to the state-sanctioned gods and importantly they would not worship the emperor. Secondly, the Christians would not then attend the state-sanctioned feasts to the gods which they regarded as idolatrous. For these and other reasons they were regarded with suspicion and possibly as being subversive to the state although they were otherwise good citizens. Thus, the policy regarding 'religious tolerance' changed since this particular religion was also becoming more widespread and was also seen somewhat differently from other religions which were more inclusive.
