"Their belief is to be respected, just as yours is.
What do you mean by respected?"
I mean what the word means. If someone holds a religious belief that you do not, you can still respect that person. And you should expect to receive their respect for your belief, as well.
There are a huge number of Hindus on this planet. Many are very devout in their beliefs. There are a huge number of Christians on this planet. Many are very devout in their beliefs. One needn't share the beliefs of another to respect their belief and devotion to it.
