Can too much respect be bad?

[tackattack]

I get your point that I've already discussed a moral claim and that I have a conceptual wall dividing morality and respect. In reality all of those things are players in this desert. We all place conceptual walls with which to frame our understanding and make the landscape more utilitarian and homey. Yes I do have, and have expressed, views on who/what does and doesn't deserve respect. I'm not sure I laid out in this thread any blameworthiness to move us into a deontological desert, but if you say I did then I probably did. I thought I was sitting in an Empirical desert discussing principles of justice derived from the community's shared intuitions. I was asking what the communities shared definitions of respect were. You are wrong though in that the very values, variables ascribed do affect the landscape.

Since you obviously have a very clear understanding of my definition of respect, would you care to share your definition of respect and cite some examples?

-P.S.- I have missed discussions with you and appreciate your candor as always.
