Wouldn't it have been easier just to ask that question instead of making mini lectures?

Well let's go back to what I stated: http://atheistforums.org/thread-18094-po...#pid425416

I'm talking about how you view some belief as ugly for yourself to hold , then people might find it an ugly belief for others to hold, but right now the proof I offered show really it's how people apply it to themselves (ie. if you would accept in the near future) that they find it ugly.

It makes no sense to apply this to others and if we did, we would not respect people with unrespectable beliefs for ourselves.

The fact we do respect people with unrespectable beliefs for us to hold, shows we should also understand that's it's not necessarily ugly for them given what they know and perceive and have experienced, at least not to the same degree (otherwise we wouldn't respect them).
