I am allowed to have a different opinion than you do. I am allowed to express my opinion, just like you are allowed to express yours. We can disagree without being bad people. I have not been disrespectful of you. Not agreeing 100% with you does not make me disrespectful. IT makes me an independent human being with my own opinions.

if you don't respect me because I don't kow tow to you... OK. I still respect you even though you disagree with me. to me that is the point of respectful disagreement.
