If one meets another for the first time, should one consider the other respectable? Should one treat others with respect until the others show their disrespectability? Is respect assumed or earned? ****************************************************************/ I always treat the people that I meet with politeness untill proved otherwise. I tend to think of respect as something that is earned. Thus I sometimes treat a unrespectable person politely while always treating a respectible person with politeness.
