What is a true religion? To someone who follows a particular religion, all other religions would be false.
And tolerating means that the tolerator thinks that he/she is superior to the person or thing that he/she is tolerating.
Religion is a very personal matter, and there can be no question of one person being superior to another using religion as a yardstick. You could be better abled, but still have quirks that make you seem like weirdo.

There is a huge difference between tolerance and aceptance. Tolerance means that people of vaarious religions can live harmoniously in the same community, shop at the same stores, and be generally pleasant to one another. Acceptance means changing your beliefs to include that of another group. We needn't accept the views of Satanists. We needn't allow some of the ritualistic sacrifices and that sort of thing as "religious tolerance". I personally am a fan of the wiccan rede "If it harm none, do wht thou wilt". It kind of sums up myviews on this subject: If you're not harming anyone, then you can worship the god of your understanding in the way you choose. But when it comes to "religions", or practices of those religions, that cause harm to come to others, that is NOT to be tolerated and certainly not to be accepted.
Hope that helps!

All religions are false. There are no gods.
We should be tolerant in the sense of accepting that different people believe different things. We should also be tolerant of people, themselves, no matter what they believe. That's because people are more than just whatever superstitions they happen to buy into. There's more to a person's character that.
That doesn't mean we can't have opinions about those beliefs or about people's actions based on those beliefs. We should judge people based on their character.

That's a hard one to answer. Who says it is false? Not a religion I would want anyone in my family to have but one cannot really change another persons' beliefs unless you have a very compelling argument for them. It is said that if you acknowledge God and his followers you must acknowledge Satan and his followers.

I don't plan to be tolerant with any religion. I can't respect people who think the universe and everything in it was formed after the domestication of the dog. I can't tolerate people who tell children that scientifically proven facts are lies and that they should believe a badly put together collection of bronze age fairy tales. Say no to jesus

They don't fit into the category of live and let live religions w/in secular societies, as w. fascists, cults or Communists who can't countenance other views/parties you/we can't be tolerant of them no matter how politically correct you want to be because the tenets of their belief systems are in no way tolerant of you and they have a tendency to convert or kill non-believers.

Well how generous of you! I wonder if the Satanist accept you? I also see you go by the name cute sexy. Doesn't your Apostle Paul say that's something one shouldn't strive for?
You're very silly!

Just because I'm "tolerant" of someone else's false religion, doesn't mean I "accept" it. Why would a Christian "accept" Satanism?
