THE LIGHT
Silver Member
One should not honour only one's own religion and condemn the religions of others, but one should honour others' religions for this or that reason. So doing, one helps one's own religion to grow and renders service to the religions of others too. In acting otherwise one digs the grave of one's own religion and also does harm to other religions. Whosoever honours his own religion and condemns other religions, does so indeed through devotion to his own religion, thinking "I will glorify my own religion". But on the contrary, in so doing he injures his own religion more gravely. So concord is good: Let all listen, and be willing to listen to the doctrines professed by others.
Emperor Asoka
If our little emperor here respected Christianity, Islam, and Judaism (to name a few) then he would respect the fact the basic tenets of those religions is NOT to listen to embrace other religions. It just shows the ironically blatant disregard for other peoples religions he and those like him really have.
