  ABSTRACT: Certainly, today the penal system is secularized (or at least it should be), but this has not always been the case; the strong religious influences are still linked to our modus vivendi. The main objective of this article is to examine events from the past, exploring their current relevance and discussing the implications for (in)tolerance, with special attention to religious intolerance. The episodes experienced by our ancestors are living proof that tolerance transcends in a pluralistic society. Here, it’s being treated as a brief historical evolution, beginning in the late Middle Ages, and its reflection on religious (in)tolerance, which, in extreme cases, causes mass deaths. It will primarily address how Brazilian legislation receives and regulates the issue.
