The Symmetry between Tolerance and Freedom - Theories and Applications in the Dynamics of Increasing Religious Diversity.
Religious diversity is a reality. It has always existed, historically and phenomenologically attested, but now it is much more visible and much more strongly experienced on the everyday level. The interaction of religions compresses distances between people, between cultures. The structure of contemporary societies forces people belonging to different religions to relate to each other, to coexist, to accept each other. Without claiming to be exhaustive, our aim in this study is primarily to highlight the dual significance of tolerance in the relationship between different religious identities (people with a concrete and assumed commitment to a religious belief ) and in the political relationship between State and religion (religious diversity), by showing the extent to which these two dimensions are applicable in practice. Secondly, we will argue that tolerance can be concretized in the sphere of religious freedom.
