The religion census of Brazil has showed a more plural religious confi guration of society in the last decades. There has been a signifi cant reduction in the number of catholics and an increase in pentecostal churches. Also, one can perceive a disposition of the individual for experimentation, thus fi guring a favourable scenery of religious mobility as well as a double or triple belonging. Though there is such an opening to new experimentations, we can also observe an ongoing wave of religious intolerance in the Brazilian scenery. Religious intolerance in Brazil is almost an exclusiveness of neo-pentecostal churches. Usually the word of hate is aimed at religions of African origin. Several organizations of society, such as NGO’s, human right groups, religious associations among others are moved and attentive to the issue of ongoing intolerance. There are groups that are arguing in favor of the promotion of peace, and often get a prophetic vein in society when they denounce the injustice of social structures. In a plural and neoliberal society, theology must look for ways of promoting a good human companionship, the practice of a conscious citizenship, the inclusion of the marginalized and justice as a common good. However, it also has to be connected to the source, to tradition, to the Gospels and to Jesus Christ. Thus, it will remain faithful to its essence as well as contribute to the construction of more humanized relationships, sharing the Good News, making a difference in a world threatened by indifference or the hate towards the other. In this paper, we will undertake a small analysis of religious intolerance in Brazil, and then cast light on the issue through the Gospel and, at last, present a proposal of an ecumenical way to deprive intolerant attitutes of legitimization.
