A lot of the answers depend on the other person. If they agree to disagree, things are good. If they insist that I must capitulate, and their way is the only way, and there is an absolute true and an absolute false, then there will be problems. Similarly, very devout people often earn my respect if they live what they preach. Very devout people earn little but a could shoulder if they try to molest me into joining their faith.
