But to pour scorn on someones belief is not respectful either.
It all boils down to tolerance. That is what is needed in this world....tolerance.
I'm afraid I disagree.

I certainly don't respect all peoples' beliefs.

Especially if those beliefs actively preach inequality, and intolerance of others, for no other reason than prejudice.

Not only won't I respect those beliefs, I'd challenge and fight them.

What some faiths believe isn't worthy of any respect, in my opinion.
