I don't actually RESPECT the beliefs of others, and frankly, I doubt those of you saying you respect those beliefs of others really do either.
Hopefully you respect their right to believe what they want, but even that is unlikely in many cases.
Very few of us respect those religious beliefs that we find repugnant and our society actually goes seriously out of its way to repress, either.
Rastfarianism for example is openly repressed.
Many forms of satanic worship? Also repressed.
Religions which believe in child abuse, polygomy, throwing virgins into volcanos, all actively repressed.
Do we really respect everyone else's religion?
How much respect did we have for that branch of Islam which was behind the WTC diaster on 9-11.
Religious tolerance is NOT a collective suicide pact, folks.
