By respect for life we become religious in a way that is elementary, profound and alive.

Our aversion to lying is commonly a secret ambition to make what we say considerable, and have every word received with a religious respect.

I respect the fact that many denominations have different points of view with respect to gay marriage and they can hold that in the sanctity in the place of their religion and not bless them or solemnize them.

I, for one, respect those who believe with all their hearts and conscience that there are no circumstances under which any abortion should ever be available.

I do respect people's faith, but I don't respect their manipulation of that faith in order to create fear and control.
