(33,982 posts)50. Which explains why you keep banging on about China and only China.

China is the single nation in the top 20 'Least Tolerant' countries list, that can be described as secular or atheistic.
Look at the top 20 MOST tolerant nations and lo and behold, 13 of the 20 score better than 50% on the WIN-Gallup International Association (WIN/GIA) poll results for "not a religious person" and "a convinced atheist" combined.
14 countries if we include Iceland's 49% score.
China is an aberration on this issue. Pick fewer cherries and look at the whole picture.
"intolerance manifests everywhere." Bullshit.
Edit, go look at the entire list of LGBT friendly cities from the survey referenced in your own article and the corresponding nations with religiosity on Wikipedia, and the picture you are doggedly trying to present for everyone here becomes clearly a lie. Stop lying for religion. It is not becoming.

The 'hurt' was to their pocketbook estimates. Hallmark is a corporation selling things.
