I've seen you write that you thought homosexual sex was immoral on here, for sure. I didn't claim all that other stuff, although I'm sure you think the catholic church is a force for good in the world, since you adhere to it. Yes, you think we need to respect your opinions even though we think they're immoral. The muslim one, was an example of an opinion that shouldn't be respected, along with the other two. I didn't say you said all of those things, but I'm simply saying that we don't have to respect people's opinions/religions, when we consider them to be highly immoral, ridiculous, and many times, an obvious force/excuse for evil in this world.
I was talking about me saying everyone should HAVE to be respectful to those with different beliefs. I never said this.
Do I think it's something people should strive for? Yes. Think being the key word there. It's my opinion. Am I allowed to have the opinion that it's best to be respectful?
You're making it sound like I want it to be against forum rules or something. This is not the case, and I clarified this numerous times on this very thread.
"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."
