We arent always supposed to agree, but we are all entitled to respected for our opinions

We are able to express out opinions, beliefs and thoughts freely. Just because someone disagrees with another, doesnt mean they hate them, or there is some phobia or ism involved....it means they disagree. There are certain things in life that are "black and white" and certain things that arent. If the truth offends you, thats your problem. if you disagree with someones opinion, at least be respectful enough to realize that nobody is required to think, act, believe, or live the way you do. We need to stop be offended by everything and anything and realize that the world isnt required to change because someone got their feelings hurt........have a wonderful day

CLARIFICATION....I was referring to general societal disagreements....I was in NO way stating that criminals(of any form), political extremist views, and the like deserve or have any right to be given respect. There is a difference between being trashed for a difference of an opinion and being inhumane, crminal and off base. Respect is definitely earned and not a free pass. Yes we are directed by God to love, but that also doesnt mean we are required to like them. hope that clears up any confusion
