Respect vs Disrespect

Dillon, I think you need to understand the difference between respect
and disrespect. You should not go and start respecting anyone or
anything which you find vile and replusive. From what I know of you, I
cannot see how you could ever respcet Haern. He is against what you
believe in, and what you are. Don't start respecting something because
you are told that you should.

On the other hand, there is a line to be drawn at being disrespectful to
things that you don't respect and just having a distain for them. At
time, though you may hate it, you need to show a little control and not
go out of your way to be hateful and assinine.

Believe me, I understand your hate. Haern is no friend of mine. But
despite this I haven't gone around and purposely disrespected him (no
matter what one little rat may have told him). I may have fought against
his will on the tree and the totem, but those were power struggles where
one could choose sides freely. What you did seems to have overstepped a
bounds between challenging a gods will and just plain being
disrespectful.

Jst understand the difference and stay behind that line. And in times of
wondrering where the line is, err on the side of caution.
