Is the East More Pluralistic Than the East?

Eastern empires remained much more pluralistic than european polities that increasingly persecute religious difference in heresy just brutally. And i think that's one of the reasons why asia runs into trouble in the nineteenth century, because it's so much more pluralist in this period. They were not good, not a model proto proto liberals. But by contrast, Europeans tend to be more hostile, more consciously hostile, to ideas from or like books or teachings that seem to come from outside of, outside of europe.
