Well it's easy to see the worlds shifting tolerances.

In the past Atheism was persecuted against, it's without a doubt shifting towards the opposite. I mean there's many people on this site that are quite aggressively anti-religion. Someone posted on here that having a religious belief is "mentally infant". In class at the age of 14 my biology teacher was making fun of Christianity at the front of class. It's amazing how many people attack ALL religious people with sweeping statements of them being uneducated, ignorant or delusional.

The world is becoming more tolerant in some cases (LGBTQ, Ethnicity) but when it comes to religious beliefs it's shifting the opposite way.

I just avoid religious threads, but even then you can't avoid it. Going into a thread about a horrific tragedy like the attack in Nice only to leave with several users in that thread calling you (not directly) and EVERYONE who is religious "stupid", "delusional", "uneducated", "mentally infant" is unnacceptable.

I wouldn't say religious people are stupid or mentally ingant, delusional yes, but that is because religion is a form of mind control. They used Christianity to mentally demoralize slaves in the U.S, which is something thay is ignored mostly in history. I would say it is a lack of education, because religion is singular and closed minded with no gray areas, while the world is not that way. Ironically God's thinking and God's abilities contradict religious thinking because God created a variety of creatures. If God had thought like religious followers tge Earth would not be a system of endless possibilities and species.
