Intolerant Works

MOA also forbids universes from works designed specifically to promote hate-mongering or ethnic/religious/societal intolerance of any kind.

So characters from the Bible and the Koran are prohibited? I can produce buckets of examples of intolerance from both.

And I could produce buckets of tolerance from both in response. The restriction only applies to works specifically designed to promote racism, sexism, religious hatred, etc. The Bible and the Koran contain both good things and bad things on the subject, so they can be included. (Besides, many entries from the Bible and the Koran would be important for understanding fictional entities or places with the same names.) However, Birth of a Nation (for example) would not be OK, because it promotes a racist view of history with villainous African-Americans and heroic Klansmen. That clearer?

Incidentally, religioustolerance.org assembles all the verses that they could find regarding tolerance in the Bible here. It wasn't buckets.
