Am I just missing the point, or is there a real difference between some faiths when it comes to openness?

I think it used to be an "only my faith" attitude.
However very slowly most religions are accepting of other religions and I think that's a good thing.

The problem is that most religions or beliefs believe they are the one true religion ...
Therefore anyone or belief that may threaten that thought they generally discredit , despite the fact that almost ALL beliefs preach NOT to pass judgement ...
It brings you back to teh fact that all people choose to practice only parts of there chosen belief making it fact that there is NO one and only right way to think.
Thus freedom of speech and thought !!

Accurally, I think that most faiths preach opense to all faith, however, the people do not practice it. for exsample, both Islam and Christianity preach being open to faith, but many fellowers dont.

There is a huge difference. I think it basically depends on the strength of beliefs and the openness to things that may challenge those beliefs

Because some of them are Baptists, and Baptists are saved and they are holier than the others and so they don't have to be open to anybody, their place in Heaven is guaranteed.
