Why must people be disrespectful?

  • One thing in life we must always deal with is disrespect. Why? Being disrespectful is part of human nature. Being able to put up with disrespect is also human nature. As to why disrespectful behavior is part of human nature is a mystery to me. Throughout my life I've had to deal with the absolute worst in people. In public people will be blatantly disrepectful of others based on skin color, religios difference, sexual orientation, or gender. It's also pretty bad online...actually, it's worse. I became a minister so I could help people become more tolerant but I see now that people must want to change. For example, my father judges people he doesn't know based solely on their religion or skin color. Everytime I hear him use a racial slur, I cringe. Disrespect is something we should not tolerate. I want the hatred to end....

    Doctor Swell I am willing to tolerate people of all color, ethnicity, sexual orientation, etc. as long as they behave themselves. Respect for each individual, however, must be earned.
