    but confined hate eventually spreads once it gains a significant following. so why allow it in the first place?

      How do you disallow it? Preventing people from practicing a religion would require a system so draconian that the drawbacks would far outweigh any possible benefit.

        By citing authentic sources from their scriptures and other data in court then use that to justify passing the law to ban the books and places of worship. before that group grows in significant number. The remaining that try to defy the law get fined or at the most severe punishment get sent to rehabilitation centers. (but not like chinese way where they use physical and mental abuse)

          I’m a Satanist, so I’m 100% not going to support something like this, as I know that my religion would be the first on the chopping block. We already have to fight in court for our rights; this would just make it even worse.

            i don’t think you should worry, because satanism does not preach hate or intolerance for the tolerant.

            i am talking about religions that don’t obey tolerance for the tolerant principle.

          Pretty much every religion has been persecuted that way somewhere in history …. Unless that’s your point

          Also, just like any segment of society, every religion will be mostly moderate but with its share of zealots

        Religions are irrationally unjustified. and irrationally unjustified hate is a danger to democracy and other people.
