MOST respect for?
I would say, in personal experience, Muslims and Hindus.
Unlike Christians, they actually don't post their religion in ADs and push it around everywhere. They also don't slander other religions, bully people because of religion, or have their religion shown in a public manner.
( Or atleast not like Christians and Churches. )



As per Muslims, the people might not be as pushy, but the religion itself is horrible.

I tend to not care in what others believe in.
( Besides, they have also debunked Christianity many times by showing its flaws. XD Bible wise and debate wise. )

Exactly yet they still think its true... It's BS... and they cant even see the truth right in front of their own faces...

Do you think its the 'Ignnorance is Bliss' thing? Or that their really that stupid?

I respect Laveyan Vatanism the most because I agree with allot of the beliefs. I also respect Buddhism because it teaches self improvement and nonviolence.

Generally, I respect a lot of the Eastern Asian religions, such as Buddhism, Confucianism, and Taoism. They seem generally peaceful, and their true goal really is self betterment. If I HAD to convert to a religion, I'd become a Taoist or Buddhist most likely.
I also respect Jews in some ways. They've had to endure so much throughout history. However, I don't feel that they deserved to take over the land in Israel. Just because it is what you claim to be your spiritual ground doesn't mean you have the right to that land. :/

Technically Confucianism was just a way of life and not a religion.

I also have some respect for Methadist Christians.
They don't give of damn about your religion or theirs.
They are pretty laid-back people and usually play sports instead of praying at Churches.

I have respect for most religions, except sciencetology, and christianity, the rest haven't affected me enough for me to not respect them

Probably Baha'i. Their philosophy makes the most sense by far, and as far as I know no one's ever been killed by a Baha'i for religious reasons.

I don't know much about Islam, but why do you say that?

The sexism as a women really gets to me

Here is the Quran annotated by an Atheist; who points out all of the horrible things within the religion.
Islam is a little bit easier to judge as negative because we still have cultures today in which are governed by the religion; and all of those are horrible places to live.

I don't know... as far as I'd say Shintoism. They are able to practice it without pressing it on others and they don't take it as seriously as Christianity does as far as I know. If otherwise someone tell me. I mostly find Shinto Mythology interesting.
