Do you believe in human dignity?

It appears that a significant portion of posters profess to be Christian. Do you believe all humans possess dignity that should be valued regardless of who they are? Regardless of races, sex, creed, habits, location, abilities, labels, etc?
This is certainly a tenet of the Catholic faith but I’m not sure if Protestants value the human dignity of each and every person. I see the way many posters here talk about other posters, politicians, leaders, etc and it seems as though human dignity isn’t particularly valued here. How does someone reconcile that with being a Christian or being a decent human? Or do you think decent humans talk to and about others using crass and hateful language?

Absolutely not.
Dignity comes with grace, grace is earned on this planet.

Do you think Muslims value the dignity of each and every person?

I’m asking about you.

Yes, with graduations depending on how much dignity each human has wasted or gained in the process of living their own lives.

So, NO. There aren’t degrees of human dignity. Someone has it or they don’t.

Yes, I believe every person has dignity ( until proven otherwise) and is deserving of basic respect as a human being.

Yes. I think prima facia, all people deserve dignity and courtesy.
That isn’t to say that you can erode that by your behavior or that you are entitled to that dignity and courtesy regardless of how much of an arse you want to be.

Yes, starting at conception, contrary to what YOU believe.
On the other hand, pieces of shite are still pieces of shite and I'd have no problem mowing down as many people as I had to if the need arose.

I'm refraining from giving the response you deserve, out of self-respect.
And not to be pedantic, but tenet, people, tenet.

We should all pattern ourselves after your beloved Hamas I guess and only use hateful language towards non Arab Muslims.
Or like your vaunted BLM and only hate everybody not black while rioting.
Sorry but still not gonna accept trans school shooters under any circumstances.

I vehemently disagree. All humans have dignity and it's derived from God.
Of course, verbal sparring about political topics has absolutely nothing to do with that despite the OPs premise.

Humans inherently have the potential for good and evil. Their actions and the path they choose decides how much "dignity" they deserve.
Do you think a rapist or murderer deserves dignity?
I don't.
The left LOVES to use "Christianity" as an argument when it suits their agenda of "tolerance" but otherwise vilify it.
I'm an old testament guy, an eye for and eye, wrath and revenge and punishment and desolation on those that commit evils. frick reform, it's gone too far and there are too many shitstains out there. We don't need to convert them, they're making more of them daily down in the hood anyway.

I think she was naive 15 years ago.
Now she’s just straight-up brainwashed.

That's your opinion and while it's a fine opinion, dignity is subjective. There's no definitive definition of whether dignity is binary or a scale.
I personally agree with the other poster. All humans are born with a respectable and lovable level of dignity and largely maintain that theough childhood, call it maximum dignity. That being said, their conscious choices can degrade that.

Or enhance it.
If dignity could not be gained or loss we you would never hear anyone say things like, "Don't say that. It would be undignified."

Most hunans reject their own dignity, I just react to their cues. We are born with dignity, we choose how we die.
Theres nothing that says Ted Bundy, Adolph Hitler or Joseph Stalin deserved dignity.
