Respect is earned, not freely given fool. I have a certain modicum of respect I hold for people I've just met, and whether that stays, grows, or erodes is entirely up to the person.
Besides, your religion isn't above being mocked.
God will not be mocked. You can mock me all you want.

I was just looking for some common courtesy. We may not agree on our views but we can still be civil.

Perhaps the problem lies more with his inability to comprehend?
I am not sure if I understand what you're saying.

Your beliefs will deserve respect when you are able to support them with evidence, logic and reasoned argument.
Evidence: The bible
Logic: The bible says so
Reasoned argument: "Bible quote. Bible quote. Bible quote. Blind assertion. Opinion. Bible quote"
I do rely on the Bible. I also believe it is more than reasonable. I also appreciate everyone else's views.
