Religious Freedom= Everyone has the right to believe/not believe in whatever he/she wants.
Religious Tolerance= Everyone's beliefs should be respected.

Religious freedom gives one the freedom to worship as they wish without consequence so long as they do not physically harm another in the process. Religious tolerance is acknowledging one does not agree with you, but in the back of your mind planning every way you can to convert them. I hate the ones that practice this becuase they assume that if they say so I willb elieve as they say. People need to realize that the only thing they control is a remote at most. Not other people. The sooner everyone realizes that not everyone feels the same and that not everyone can go with the same program (religion), the sooner we can all get along. That goes for ALL religions and ALL people.

Religious tolerance is tolerating the religions of other people. Religious freedom gives you freedom to choose the religion you wish to follow.

Tolerance is the individual accepts others right to beleive the way he or she chooses without judging or condemning or trying to convert. Religious freedom is given by governments and is the right to beleive and worship as one chooses.
For example here in the United States we have religious freedom and can beleive the way we want and to worship the way we choose as long as it does not break any laws. Yes even us pagans are free to worship as we please within the bounderies of the law.
Tolerance on the other had is few and far between. the monothiestic religions are not tolerant and that is why they feel the need to try and convert everyone.

Religious freedom means that you have the right to worship as you please or not to worship at all.
Religious tolerance means that you are able to live in peace with people who believe differently than you do.
There is no religious freedom without religious tolerance.

Religious freedom means being able to choose any religion. Religious tolerance means all religions are the same.

Religious tolerance is letting people or another faith believe what they will without trying to change them.
Religious freedom is the free practice of a religion without others persecuting you for your beliefs or practices.

Christians are not tolerant of any other religion (regardless of what they say) but everyone has the right to practice what they want, thus religious freedom.
