Yes, it involves me in a meta sort of 'everything is connected' sort of way, if you'd like to be dense.

A person's personal belief does not involve me unless they try to enact it into law or use it to cause harm to me or my family.

I'm the one being dense... Seriously?!

You just admitted that it does involve you. You can't have it both ways. As long as that person's personal belief is wrong you have to do everything within your power to correct it. It's your unspoken duty as a citizen of the world. It certainly does involve you, especially when so many people hold incorrect beliefs. Wherever it gets as clear-cut as you're trying to make it seem you act accordingly. Otherwise, you rely upon your power of persuasion to change people's minds about it, within the confines of the law and what is ethically acceptable.

I was conceding that point for argument's sake. Come, now.

I don't have a duty to correct anyone. In fact, I consider it my duty as a citizen of a pluralistic society to protect the rights of people to do, think, and believe as they wish so long as it doesn't harm others in a real way. My duty, as I perceive it, is the exact opposite of your duty, as you perceive it.
