>>IMHO to label something someone says as kefirah is  disrespectful at  
best and is a violation of v'ahavta l'rayecha  komocho.<<




>>>>>
Yes, but there is no mitzva of "vehavta lerei'acha  kamocha" towards a kofer. 
 
 
It's a Catch-22, isn't it?  Don't call him a kofer if he's rei'echa  but 
don't consider him rei'echa if he's a kofer!  
 
Or maybe someone is not a kofer in general but one of his opinions is  
kefirah -- you still have the same situation, namely, if it's kefirah, then  vehavta 
lerei'acha doesn't apply to his kefirah.

President Reagan talked with the Soviets while pushing ahead  with the 
deployment of Cruise and Pershing missiles in Europe. He spoke softly —  after 
getting himself a bigger stick.  --Mark Steyn
