@pegasusjones i think the meaning of "respect" is lost in much of the younger generation. Religious folks respect the devil, for example, as wise and powerful, but they don't offer him friendship because they know (or ought to know) his nature. Respecting a cat would mean giving it space if it didn't want to be cuddled. I'm not sure I'm getting your point except that maybe you just see the use of "respect" and "tolerate" differently than I do.
