With some individuals the proper respect would be none at all. That is what I thought but Scripture tells us to respect everyone. 1 Peter 2:17 Respect everyone, and love your Christian brothers and sisters. Fear God, and respect the king."This passage encompasses four major areas of our lives, teaching us that, as followers of Christ, we should respect all men, other Christians, God, and governmental authorities" Show me Scripture that rebukes that.

Am I not correct? Is there a difference in honor and respect? Well, the first version says to pay "proper" respect to everyone, which would indicate not everyone rates the same level of respect.

This link says it was from the 13th century, If I read it correctly. http://www.dictionarycentral.com/definition/respect.html Quote Origin & History of “respect” Respect and respite (13th c.) are ultimately the same word. both go back to respectus, the past participle of Latin respicere ‘look back at’, hence ‘look at, regard, consider’. this was a compound verb formed from the prefix re- ‘back’ and specere ‘look’ (source of English spectacle, speculate, etc). Respectus passed into English, perhaps via Old French respect, as respect, in the sense ‘regard, relation’ (as in with respect to); the key modern meaning ‘deference, esteem’ developed towards the end of the 16th century. An earlier borrowing of respectus into Old French produced respit, which preserved another meaning of the Latin word, ‘refuge’. This was the source of English respite.
