Respect is seeing the person the Lord created and giving regard for that person's feelings, wishes, rights and well-being.
When you disregard a person's feelings, wishes, rights and well-being you disregard the person in disrespect.
Without respect, there is no relationship, because there is no regard.
Without regard for someone else, you are basically having a relationship with yourself and your selfish desires.
Without regard and respect for what the Lord created, there is no relationship with humanity and the Lord.
