Respecting Others!

Hi Walnut. Thanks for sharing your views. Respect if and when imposed loses it's value by definition. One respect is earned and it's hard to receive it. While the other respect is one value that has been given us by God the Creator freely and equally regardless of where and who we are. Keep sharing your views. It's nice!

Hi Tamron. Thanks for sahring. I agree with you that respect is earned. I would say that there are two type of respect. Just like you said, one respect is earned and the other everyone man has it by virtue of being a created human being. God created all men equal and all men deserve respect regardless of race, status and religion. And this respect is ingrained in the person you and me just because God Himself gave us freely equally. Keep sharing your views. I like it!

Hi Making. Thanks for sharing your views. I agree with your view. I do believe also that all men are created equal by the same Creator and deserve respect in that sense. But some man are more respected and some less in the society. And I think it's fair to do that. Because some people earned respect as they live by their life and some don't live upto a respectable standard. By virtue of creation all men derserve respect because disrespect to another human being would in the first place means disrespect to the One who created man. Keep sharing your views. You've got a good point of view. Appreciate it!

Thank you for the best response, bekosfc. I appreciate you views as well. I do agree that society predicts that some people obtain more respect than others, I also believe that society is only a small portion of what makes for a meaningful life. While I give some people the respect they have 'obtained' as it pertains to existing at peace in society, I am aware that as a person they are still my equal and as a person I would treat them as I do others.
