Always good to respect and listen to the "other side."

Listen yes, respect, no. People earn respect, their existential beliefs gain respect when they can be supported by evidence.

For me personally, it's contextual. I can respect the views of the tribes like the Pirahas even if I do believe they're clueless about what we do know about the world.
