The idea of religious tolerance on an SMA island has to be one of the worst ideas I've ever heard

[Glaumring the Fox]

In order to survive against SA we've had to adapt a policy of tolerance. It doesnt mean we will maintain it forever ie: Muslims and Jews started off pretty buddy buddy but look at them now. Its just that the religions outside of SA have been rather non-entities. The history of Asylon required tolerance our kingdom was half SA and a smattering of other religions we couldnt isolate them to appease SA. SA's weakness was its intolerance it could afford to be intolerant because many if not all its nobles were SA and its regions were SA. CoB came about in the busy mid-west of Dwilight and needed to survive in different ways.

Bear in mind that religious tolerance did exist in the middle ages - it was rare and only happened in unique circumstances out of necessity but it did happen in some places. And those places usually benefited as a result.

I would like some examples of religious tolerance in the time frame that bm takes place.  I looked and could find none.

[Chenier]

Pretty sure examples have already been given here and there on the forums.

[dustole]

I haven't seen examples.  That's why I asked

Playing as Priest of another faith in Dwilight is becoming a pain in the ass... two days playing, two/three days wounded.

[dustole]

SA has almost all the followers.   ESA and CoB are declared evil by SA so the peasants automatically attack priests off those religions

[Eduardo Almighty]

Yes... and that's why is becoming a pain in the ass to play as a Priest in Dwilight. It's even hard to play...

[dustole]

You should join SA.

The Varangian guard is an example of religious tolerance. The Byzantine Emperors embraced the Vargangians difference in faith for it made them hardier warriors. At least in the early days of the Vargangian guard, prior to the North converting.

Also Jews in Christianity and Christians and Jews in Islam. Remember you're playing Counts and Dukes, not ignorant peasant rabble.
