Respect if you don't have a better argument. Better in terms of logic, facts, and science. Respect if the other person is following logical implications. Religion is very easy to prove wrong, using logic, facts, and science. Disregarding another person's opinion just because you disagree, without explaining by way of logic why you're right and the other person is wrong, is axiomatically wrong. By the way, and this is just a suggestion to HN, those that down-vote based on whims or disagreements should be heavily penalized. It's correct to down-vote spam, trolls, offensive postings, or comments that add nothing, but it's very wrong to discard what others say simply because it's not the music that the powerful button clickers want to hear.
