that is the most idiotic statement I have heard in a while. you are not all for respecting other people's beliefs because respecting other people's beliefs includes respecting that which is irrational in your eyes

Not all beliefs are created equal.

yes but if you truly respect other people's beliefs [in the broadest form, which is how opsayo described it initially] then you respect all such beliefs. True, you can disagree and what not, but calling out a single belief as irrational based on your own mindset is not logical.
It would be similar to me saying, "I respect all religions, no matter their belief system," and then proceeding to say, "but I believe that [insert religion] is irrational because their beliefs seem irrational to me."

Perhaps what he means is he'll tolerate all beliefs. As in "i think your belief is ridiculous, but you have a right to believe it, so I won't persecute you for it, but I might in my mind hold you as an idiot (and maybe sometimes verbally abuse you)"
which is all we can do...really.
tolerate and respect do mean different things. Like we can tolerate an annoying friend of a friend but only because we respect the first friend.

Coming from an ex-Catholic:
I used to be an altar server and me and other altar servers used to eat them after mass lol
(though technically they're still just wafers cause they haven't been blessed)
It tastes like those korean rice popcorn things if you eat enough of them
