In many places in the world, there is war and violence because of religious and racial intolerance: Ireland, Middle East, India, Mindanao, etc. This is paradoxical because all the great religions preach love and compassion, and yet at the same time its advocates are ready to kill and sow hatred.
No evil hath so afflicted the world as intolerance of religious opinion. The human beings it has slain in various ways, if once and together brought back to life, would make a nation of people. - (A. Pike)
A serious threat to peace is posed by intolerance, which manifests itself in the denial of free of conscience to others. The excess to which intolerance can lead has been one of history's most painful lessons. . . . . Tolerance is not a passive virtue, but it is rooted in active love and is meant to be transformed into a positive commitment to ensuring freedom and peace for all. - Pope JohII n Paul
