Pages 7 and 8 of the 10th edition of the Boy Scout Handbook:

A Scout is FRIENDLY.... He seeks to understand others. He respects those with ideas and customs different than his own.

A Scout is REVERENT. ...He respects the beliefs of others.

So the word "tolerant" isn't present, but I believe the concept is.

Yes, I would assume so. I was a Boy Scout well over 40 years ago, but it's amazing that some things stick with you.
