Abstract
The work begins with early insights from William James, Sigmund Freud, and Carl Jung, highlighting their contributions to understanding tolerance in the context of religious beliefs. Building on these foundations, the paper examines key psychological theories-such as moral development, personality, and social identity - that explain the cognitive and social mechanisms behind tolerance.
