All of them. It's their followers who are sometimes intolerant.

Buddhism encourages the study of all the world religions and says that you should discard any Buddhist teaching if you find it not helpful. It also states you should take whatever is helpful from other religions and use it in your life. Although I think most religions are tolerant of other religions. I also went to a United Universalism church and there were people of all different faiths there.

that is not an easy thing to do even if desired there remains still a level of prejudice if not intolerence but this could be worked out. one that would resemble the Unitarian one would be to bring three of main groups of one religion together by linking the symbols and teachings of each into a comtorable fit. the religion of God and Christianity linked with the same of Judaism and Islam. sort of Trinity with the Star Of David atop a cross with a crescent and star inside. these to represent each and how they are joined. this might help all three. if some way to fit all three into one linked by these symbols can be figured out. they of course have something in common but to link them with symbols from each could help bring understanding of the commonality of each into better perspective and help alleviate prejudice against any of the groups of each or among these groups. it would be step in this direction if the three groups involved were to do so and if they did so world wide this could help. might not solve all problems more could crop up but with a strong link the problems could be adressed as a united group.

Most claim to but when want to force others to follow what they believe. Tolerance and acceptance are two different things. People claim they tolerate others belief based on they do not condone torture and killing. True tolerance for each other is a very hard concept for most to grasp.

Well the protestants named for those who protested the religion in place, can't get together even though they all believe in God and Jesus and the Bible. There are numerous sects. I can't see the Pope giving up his seat anymore than the Queen would give up her tiara so...anyway to answer your specific question. Yes, Buddhists accept all religions, they just know their's is right. Desire leads to pain. Dali Lama. The enlightened one.

Universal, means everyone everywhere. If we were to say GOD wouldn't let the ignorant into HEAVEN that denies GOD's justice . .. but we say instead that everyone can go to HEAVEN who has LOVE in their heart for their brother . .. and is meek and humble to repent before the LORD accepting JESUS AS LORD . ..

The universal Church is the Catholic Church . .. Catholic means "universal" and it is meant to be a Church of CHRIST as a priest to the nations, a beacon of light in the night, leading to CHRIST and TRUTH . ..

LOVE your neighbor as yourself.
Amen.

I tolerate others, but believe they are wrong. I think some New Age ones allow about anything or any god, or path to him.

The Universal Life Church certainly does.

I think all religions tolerate other belifs, but they also believe that their church is the true church.

Yeah. All of them. We obviously tolerate others, they are still around (and not dead), but you can't expect us to think they are right. I have a Wicca friend, a couple Catholic friends, a few Atheist friends, etc. I like them, but religiously, they are not right. See what I mean?

Unitarian Universalism is the one you are hinting at.
They are they ones with the flaming chalice as their logo. Enjoy.
