Syag, Halachah DOES say who not to be respectful of. There IS a Shulchan Aruch and one must follow it. Otherwise we are not doing HaSHem’s ratzon, only our perverted, biased feelings. It is Halacha that mandates Ahavas Yisroel for those even not fully committed as long as they’re not reshaim, as long as they’re ???? ?????. To love and regard someone who is not, someone who is ??? ???? ????? as with any other Torah practicing Jew, is wrong, as the Chofetz Chaim writes, ???? ??????. So it is our Halacha which decides Halachos, Ahavas Yisroel included. Otherwise it is not ahavs yisroel, rather a secular culture code of manners. While maybe nice, nothing Jewish.
