Btw, what are those little guys on your signature?
You don't have to investigate anything to not believe in it.
For instance.
I am fairly convinced next door do not have an elephant in their basement.
Do I need investigate just to be sure?
Oh and that's just a dude dancing.
I agree. That's what I was saying to Napoleon.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
