Is polytheism less violent? Well no.
How did monotheistic faiths react to polytheism? Well if we look at Zoroastrianism and Judaism, they were both quite tolerant. In the case of Judaism, they were a lot more tolerant as a monotheistic religion, as compared when they were still polytheists. Polytheism was just violent.
