the inclusive secular world embraced all that heretical, or rather dystolerance

I guess there’s a psychological appeal, for some people, the heretical is sort of attractive territory

I used to give my religion as “heretic”. It’s probably on one of my census returns.

I found it a useful descriptor for the boundary between “religious” and “agnostic”.

In the secular world, dystolerance tends to be described as cynicism.
