^This.

As an atheist, you think 1,000,000 religions are wrong. As a Catholic I think 999,999 religions are wrong. At the end of the day, we both think WE are right and everyone else who thinks differently is wrong. Which is kind of the whole point of having an objective opinion.
"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."
