Why Christians can't respect other's opinion?

RE: Why Christians can't respect other's opinion?
Hey, thanks for the acknowledgement! Smile

I think there are actually a lot of Christians who respect your differences, respect you as a person, and don't want to get all preachy.

You just don't really notice them because they stay quiet about that stuff. Naturally, it's the loud ones you notice most.

Next time you're in a situation where a theist is bugging you, just tell them that your views are different, and though you respect their views, you are not interested in having any discussions about them.

Keep it simple, respectful, and straight forward. I imagine most of them will drop it at that point.
"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."
