Well, if you know God exists, why concern yourself with people that do not believe?

And the same goes for people that do not believe.

Bigotry is not being tolerant of other people's beliefs.

Japanese people believe or used to believe that people have 3 "faces", you know how they talk about losing face.

They have one face for the public, One face for their inner circle and one face that nobody sees but them. They keep their true face or beliefs hidden.

Therefore they can respect other peoples beliefs, take a lot abuse, enjoy themselves around thier friends and still feel confident no matter what someone sys about them. It gives them an inner strength.
