Do you honor Thy Mother and Father?

I can't but assume that the biblical honor means respect here, otherwise it is utterly inexplicable to me.

i give them respect. but in my heart, i do not respect them. i dislike my father{used to hate him before. for very justified reasons. but that just seemed pathetic so now its indifference.dislike} . my mother can be insane at times, but i suppose thats the enviornment that surrounds her n what shes been though, so yea i do care for her.

yea right. whose skins are you wearing *******! 😛

I love my mom and dad, but not becasue I have to according to some ancient, mythological law.

Respect is earned, not automatic. It should be based on the parents' performance.

its good to atleast "try" not to hate. its better to try and see things from the perspective of others, if you can, try and help them or change yourself. if they truly are completely{not likely} in the wrong, then call them misled. doesnt mean you let others take advantage of u, just means that hating isnt a very nice thing.

I honor my parents sometimes to most of the time.

And fully honoring someone 24/7 - 365d/yr. is unrealistic cause they aren't perfect either. Is the text saying I honor my parents regardless of anything. if so I disagree with that.

What if my father murdered an Innocent child on purpose let's say out of selfishness or greed. Shall i still honor him?

You should still love him porque he's your dad, despite what he did.

Maybe not honor, but love. Blood is thicker than water.

Yeah, can't throw them away no matter how hard you try......they're sticky like glue or sap.
