I do.

I am a first name basis kind of person, extending to EVERYBODY. If you disagree with calling your parents and grandparents by their first name, I'd like to know why we call them by that title in the first place and not by their real names.

Why is this the case?

because of the hierarchy, you are on the same level as your siblings.

That does make sense, yet I do not find it disrespectful.

I do see the hierarchy and it does make sense, yet I don't believe in it. We are all equals when it really comes down to it. We're all sinners. I put everyone on the same level playing field and do not put anyone on a pedestal.

That being said, I also do not idolize any one person.
