People on our planet follow twelve influential religions, live in about two hundred nation-states, come from about 5,000 ethnic groups, and speak more than 6,000 languages. Tolerance - its presence or absence - largely determines how these different groups and people coexist. Tolerance is an approach, a habit, a rule, a worldview, and a way of life in which respect for diversity plays a central role.
