          But you can not declare someone as "wrong". Even if you think they are, do not disrespect beliefs. It is hard to see hate live and love die.

          Tell that ISIS victim or mom of Heather Heyer. A person can respect another person w/out respecting their beliefs. This is toxic rhetoric.

          Ah, but blatantly telling them they are wrong is so discourteous. Also, the examples you gave are irrelevant.

          How are they irrelevant? It perfectly encapsulates that views which are patently wrong (sharia law/ white supremacy) do not deserve respect.

          Why just have one favorite? I like Einstein, Bill Nye, Tesla and you. Better to follow the footsteps of scientists than politicians
