“I do respect people's faith, but I don't respect their manipulation of that faith in order to create fear and control.”
— Javier Bardem

Simplified Meaning:
It's important to appreciate what people believe in without judging them. Everyone has the right to their own faith, and these beliefs can give them strength and hope. However, it's not okay for someone to use these beliefs to scare others or make them do things out of fear. For example, if a leader uses religion to force people to follow unfair rules or to turn them against others, that's wrong. Each person should be free to believe in their faith without being controlled or frightened. This advice helps us understand when respect for someone's beliefs can be taken too far if it's used to harm or control others.
