To me this clip shows how tolerance and respect are both important but respect is still the more important one of the two

“You should respect each other and refrain from disputes; you should not, like water and oil, repel each other, but should, like milk and water, mingle together.”  Buddha

I believe that everyone has the right to live their lives the way they want to as long as it does not impact anyone else negatively. I also believe that a homosexual person should be given the same rights as anyone else. Some would say that the Bible condemns it and therefore it shouldn't be allowed, but the Bible also says “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” If you followed this rule, then you would be on the right track to respecting them. If you then decided not to have anything to do with them that would only be tolerating them. I am not saying that there is anything wrong with that but in order to respect them and in turn to develop a deeper understanding and level of sympathy, you would have to communicate with them and approve of their thoughts and beliefs even if they don't entirely match up  with your own or the collective opinion, which i belive is shown in the quote on the far left. To respect homosexual people is to take a further step forward into the world of equality and respect towards everyone.

"As for the one who is weak in faith, welcome him, but not to quarrel over opinions. One person believes he may eat anything, while the weak person eats only vegetables. Let not the one who eats despise the one who abstains, and let not the one who abstains pass judgment on the one who eats, for God has welcomed him. Who are you to pass judgment on the servant of another? It is before his own master that he stands or falls. And he will be upheld, for the Lord is able to make him stand."

To me, respect is accepting  another group or individual's existence, while also having approval or favor towards them.

To me, tolerance is admitting the right for a group or individual to exist but not wanting to get to know them.
