Joking vs mockery, respect or disrespect?
#62
RE: Joking vs mockery, respect or disrespect?
I thought also relevant with this would be this formal proof:


I do not find the belief x to be respectable for me to hold.
If I knew I were to hold belief x, I currently would disrespect that future self, given the perception I have now.

This is to show you cannot respect a future notion of yourself with those beliefs because of the knowledge you have. It appears evil for you to do or believe in.

However, if you respect others, given they have those beliefs you would not respect your future self for holding....

I think this means you have an understanding that the beliefs x don't appear the same way to them, as they do to you.

Otherwise...we can add:

I should respect people as much I would respect future self for belief x.
Therefore I shouldn't respect anyone with belief x.

Therefore necessarily, if you can distinguish between respecting the person and their beliefs, you already sort of agree with me Tongue
