Belief and Faith

I am amused that people always think that what they believe in is always superior than others. They can in fact confidently think that what others believe in is a laughing stock and therefore, that makes them uncivilised. Often those who bow before a statue or even a tree is habitually made fun of. How do these bunch that represent a great deal of civilisation could be so assured that they are REALLY and TRULY walking on THE PATH OF TRUTH?
When my faith and yours is dissimilar, why can't you learn to be respectful? In any teaching of any believe that either one of us is clinging to, I choose to believe that none says that IT WOULD BE ALRIGHT to MARGINALISE others of different faith. Sadly, the minorities have to suffer and bear the mockery, the jeer and the cynical remarks that they are being awarded with.
Having the authority does not make you more holy. Plus, you don't have the right to say ONLY WHAT YOU BELIEVE IN IS THE ONLY TRUTH. Happen to be that yours is IN FACT NOT THE RIGHTEOUS ONE, how would you handle that in the end?
Please people, before you even have the thought of labeling people as rough-edged, misled or something, recalculate your judgment. It could possibly be that those beliefs that you find disgusting is the REAL LIGHT that you need to brighten you soul.
If others find their innate solace by giving offering to their Superior one by the act of slaughtering an animal, or maybe by chanting, or perhaps through dancing or howling or inflicting self-physical pain, what on Earth makes their ways of honouring their Divinity less dignified than what you or I believed in?
