It is no surprise at all that anyone would believe in myths, lies, and legends - parents fill our heads with this nonsense from infancy to adolescence. What is a surprise is that some exceptional people grow up and throw away their childish beliefs in favor of practical knowledge, which is presented badly in our schools and media. Practical materialists make a difference, and there are too few of us. The rest do not, and there are too many of them. Quoting verses from faith-based books as if they were somehow irresistible magic spells does nothing to convince us of their alleged validity.
Wish you could have been a little more tactful in making that statement.
Yes, but I could not have been any more
truthful.

Respect for what? A
book? It has no feelings, being an inanimate object. Fallacious beliefs in myths and legends? Don't make me laugh.
People? Well, have a good evening, then. May you sleep safe and well.
