> Many people follow supposedly "violent" religions peacefully alongside other faiths.
This is what I originally meant. I think you understand. We might use different words for the same thing here.
Christian people in the western world would reject many stories in the Bible. Even Pope seems to reject some ancient ideas from the Bible.
Or you can say I consider the old Christianity to be a different religion from the modern Christianity. Because the sets of beliefs differ.
But, in other parts of the world where society isn't as "developed", we just follow blindly what (most of) the book says. We reject very little. Since the book is often ancient, it becomes problematic.
At least, for me, it doesn't even need to be an action. For example, if a person believes that women are properties of men because the religion says so, I wouldn't want to accept that religion. (Let's say that person says it out loud)
Please note, by accepting, I mean "being okay that the person next to you practice this religion". In other words, you can live together in the same area.
