Be careful with that one. When you accuse a religious person of being insecure they may: 1) Eject you from society; 2) Set things on fire (your house, your car, your genitals); or 3) Enslave your children.
...Or not do any of those and simply answer the question.
"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."
