    I have given up on that. I will respect individuals who follow the buffoonery unless they give me reason not to, sure, but I will never respect a book that says I should be stoned to death, and the surrounding culture that such a book is about love and acceptance.

      What if “respecting the buffoonery” is the real cult?
