Respect for Belief (to a point)



I’m listening to a course, online, all about “WORLD RELIGIONS” and I am finding it BRILLIANT and fascinating.  I love my faith, but I am not so ignorant to believe that I have “all the answers”, and this series of lectures that I’m listening to really reinforces this way of thinking that my parents taught me: appreciate everyone’s belief and opinion UNLESS they are being led astray in a “cult”.  I cannot be ignorant to the perspectives of other people.  YOUR idea of God is just as valid as mine (including those who do NOT believe).  Bottom line: I respect your opinion.
