  • Well to be a good Christian, you would need to have Christ’s love in your heart.

    And you can either choose to demonstrate Christ’s love to try to convert her (takes decades and lots of care; not viable for most)

    Or you can choose to be in a relationship with someone who will never convert

    Or you can choose to be in a relationship with somebody else who shares the beliefs that you do.





  • There are two very different types of respect; respect for a person as a human being, and respect for a person as an authority. But because we use the same word for these two different things, people often talk as if they were the same thing. So for example, when someone in authority says “If you don’t respect me, I won’t respect you.” What they’re actually saying (and justifying) is “If you don’t respect me as an authority, I won’t respect you as a human being.”

    So it depends what you mean by respect. Because beyond basic human decency (not caving their skull in with a baseball bat). Additional respect is entirely optional.
