What gives a religion the right to claim their fantasy is correct and the rest false?

The difference being I don't base my views off of bronze age mythology. Until someone provides evidence for one, there is no god. This is not debatable.

And no I do not have to 'respect' someones belief in fairy tales. That is debatable and is an dea often debated among atheists.

I don't think it really matters. The thread is about thinking your own opinion/ideology is correct and everyone else's is wrong. We all do it. If we didn't think our way was correct, it wouldn't be our way, obviously.
"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."
