Be honest. Do you cultivate ignorant opinions of people who have different religious viewpoints than your own? Do you refuse to consider that people in "those" religions (or any religion at all )can have some really good points to make?
Do you think that people who don't agree with you in the area of religion or irreligion are just stupid or wicked? Do you think that people of other religions will definitely go to Hell no matter how upright or kind or charitable or devout or just or virtuous they may be?
Do you think that all in other religions serve demons or the Antichrist? Do you get what little information about other (or any)religion(s) from sources that are themselves violently biased against"those people" and their"evil delusions" and heresies?
Be honest,now.

In today's society of political correctness, I am a bigot because I am a white Christian conservative male who believes there are definite RIGHT and WRONG. I believe there are some behavior that should NOT be acceptable regardless of how a person is born or how they say they are born. I believe the only way to Heaven is through the saving grace of our Lord God and the acceptance of His Son's sacrifice on the cross and subsequent Resurrection.

That being said, I believe everyone is created in God's image and, as such, has inherent worth. Each person knows things and can perform actions which are valuable to society as a whole. The problem arises, though, when they force lower standards in order to promote "equality" or "diversity". Typically, in today's society, these terms have lost their true and pure meanings and been distorted to mean the lowering of moral standards in order to "accept" any lifestyle desirable.

I glean my information from many different sources which include printed materials, internet sources and audio media sources. I maintain an open mind until I feel I have adequately researched a topic. Because of this method, I have determined that there are certain threats to our way of life and our safety which must be dealt with. There are behaviors as well as groups of people and belief systems which are destructive to a society. These must be fought against and I am willing to fight against them. If these things make me a bigot, than so be it.

I am definitely not a bigot. But, I do get a little bold with the christians because of their arrogance, ignorance and intolerance. Nobody in this world brings out my confrontational side like they do. But, I don't hate all of them, but I also will not back down to them. I would say fine, live your life and believe what you want to believe. Without ever condemning them, but they won't do the same for me. So, it's on!

I can honestly say that I may not always agree with what others believe or their lifestyles, but I also keep an open mind and respect their views and ways of life. I am not a judge or jury and as long as others respect my views why should I push mine on them?

- Certainly not. I'm no bigot.
- People who don't agree with me in my beliefs aren't stupid or wicked. They found their own path (of belief or non-belief), and I respect that completely.
- No they won't go to hell. Nobody will.
- No religion serves demons!! Demons don't exist.

I think that if people are really honest, we all have some thoughts that could be classed as bigoted. All in our own points of view, isn't it?

Religious syncretism was/is NEVER the forte of bigots - read christians, muslims and jews - abrahamic trash!

Your long definition of a bigot is incorrect.

No, but I maintain the right to be provocative.
