Three main topics will be discussed in this article: First, the two central aspects associated with the concept of (religious) tolerance, giving emphasis to their difference and, also, their mutual dependence; secondly, the historical advancement of these concepts in the institutional development of the West, paying attention to the fact that we have in this process both a waning mentality of persecution and, on the other hand, a strengthening in the political powers that moderate the pacts of tolerance; finally, we will read the current situation related to religious intolerance and persecution based on some of the precepts of mimetic theory
