No dogmatic religion will stand thinking.

What does this sentence mean?
The part 'stand thinking' is confusing!

@nuniunu: You must provide the source and author of anything you quote. It's a legal requirement we are subject to. We can answer your question after you've done that.

It's a sentence from a book titled 'Words in Pain' by Olga Jacoby.

In this context "stand" means "stand up to" or "live with". It's the same meaning it has when we say we can't stand something or someone.
