Just a point for consideration ....
No one has an automatic entitlement to be respected ...
It is my experience that respect has to be earned .
Perhaps Christians are not that respectable?
(and just as an aside .... why is your question Xitian-centric ... can those of other faiths ,or indeed none ,deserve respect?
are you not concerned ,for example , with a lack of respect for Hindus or Mohamedans?)

Man will never be free until the last king is strangled with the entrails of the last priest.
