Yours has a definitive right and wrong answer based soley on what the bible says, while mine strives for the least negative/most positive possible outcome for the most people, based on empathy, theory of mind, and an unspoken societal agreement.
Lol, that was a very unbiased way of putting it...
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
