[QUOTE="Jake1, post: 2141553, member: 206985"] It's impossible to do. How can we discuss what is right and wrong in a societal sense if we don't set standards and "judge" actions? PS I like the idea of respecting others, it's just other people's beliefs I don't have to respect. Just because someone belives something doesn't make it true or worthy of my respect. EDIT: I appreciate the quick response, but the phrase "live and let live" which you are advocating for is a circular argument. If I were to choose to judge others, wouldn't you then be obligated to say that my lifestyle (that is, my choice to judge others) is just as good as the lifestyle as the person whom I am judging? Relativism really doesn't work well since it cheapens talk of all morality. Sorry. [/QUOTE]
