I'm with Pete on this - I don't want other people's beliefs, because I can form my own beliefs on my own.

People should be respected, regardless of their beliefs, except where exercising those beliefs adversely affects the health, safety, security, and general welfare of others - lawbreakers deserve no respect at all, except where required by law.

I remember a person that said that he did not read books because he did not want other people influencing his beliefs.
