Resumo
This thesis investigates religious intolerance in Brazil today. The analysis maintains that this contemporary social phenomenon has its most powerful foundation in ideological formulations of colonial origin, systematically built to subaltern or extinguish the experiences, histories, resources, and cultural products of colonized/enslaved peoples marked by mental and cultural inferiority based on artificially created racial differences. Such instruments of domination, imposed with constancy and violence, forged, in the field of religions, the demonization of cosmogonies and conceptions of the sacred of these populations, so that, until today, religions, especially those arising from African culture, are classified as primitive, uncivilized and have their ceremonial practices considered sordid, if not criminal. This work asserts, therefore, that epistemic racism is the matrix of national religious intolerance. And this epistemic root is intersected by the current dispute for the market of symbolic goods and services for the material and spiritual problems of a population that believes in the power of magical interventions, at the heart of a Brazilian society that uses force and annihilation as principles for conflict resolution. In this context, the journalistic media is a fruitful field of sociological analysis due to its ability to expose the associations and representations, recriminations, and valuations that society has on a certain object or content. Thus, this work conducts a content analysis research, using as empirical material the articles, articles and comments present in two of the largest newspapers in Goiás as valuable resources to assess the level of collective perception regarding socially susceptible phenomena such as religious intolerance. Theoretical arguments as well as the empirical research resources aim to inscribe and make visible religious intolerance as one of the frontiers of current social aversion that needs to be named, scaled, and fought as a process of great violence, whose purpose is inscribed in the erasure and in the cultural usurpation of ancestral religious traits and the resistance of historically subjugated peoples.
