Why not respect my belief? What's so hard about that?

If I told you I know—for sure—that I'm winning the lottery this week, would you respect my belief that I know—for sure—that I'm winning the lottery?

You'd say, I don't believe you. It's just a belief.

If I spent thousands of dollars from my checking account purchasing things for myself because of my belief of winning the lottery this week and I told all my friends I was doing this—when I did *not* win the lottery, what would people think of me?

They would think I was foolish and acted on wishful thinking, at least. Don't you agree? I'm sure other people might think I was insane or at least, temporarily insane.

Do we respect beliefs?

No.

No? Errr...

Hell no.

That's better.
