The worst kind of bigot is the one who doesn't know that he's a bigot, and would adamantly deny it if called on it. I think that describes god pretty well.

I think bigot is a harsh word for any lord regardless of his degree of divinity. The real question should be is he dogmatist or compliance-matist (some one who has to comply with a given framework or statutory requirements). It may imply the same thing, but from a believer point of view they are universe a part. It seems that divine he may be, but some how, he is some one who has to comply with a agreed system or framework . It seems like a system in which you do a lot of sins and cause a lot vices but if you just feel remorse and repentance, he has to forgive you. He has to love every one in the world those believe in him and those who do not but have to save the souls on the day of divine of only those who accepted him or the ones he select. He has to give equal chance to Satan and his followers over his own believers just be symbol of justice. I mean it seems like, divine he may be but even he has to act according to compliance requirements. Who has laid down that system or framework of requirements by which he has to act is some thing difficult to say. One can argue and believe that may be these requirements are defined for mutual love that both the creator and the creation agreed to, which now binds both during the existence till in the end of eternity. But it gives me enough hope to say that at least he is not a bigot.

Acceptiong Jesus means accepting what He did for all mankind. What He did was make it avalible for you and me to have a connection to Truth that was lost a long time ago. He then became the sacrificial offering to pay for the errors of all that had been operating outside of reality. It ain't about a religious choice, it is about a choice to go on with the plan.
There can only be one true road to God's destination for us. and He is making it clear that you must choose the mind of Christ to get there. Anyway if you knew in your heart already that it was a missing part of making you a whole person, wouldn't it make sense to become complete? God is just like your father, He wants the best for you. He way is truth and love and nobody can come to him without a full deck.

There is not discrimination. He welcomes all, but only the righteous(just) can make it to heaven. Everyone has done some bad things in there life...lying, stealing, lusting after someone, taking God's name in vain, etc. Out of love for us and knowing how aweful we are, Jesus died on the cross, so that anyone who believes on Him may have their sins overlooked/pardoned by God on their day of judgment. God is just and he can not let a lawbreaker in His kingdom. A judge in court would not let a criminal go free without paying some sort of restitution for his crime, right? We as citizens of the U.S. demand that. God is a just judge and He will not allow sin near Him. Jesus payed our debt. Bigottry not, at all. Anyone who calls on the Lord Jesus will be pardoned. Take some time out to call on Him. He is waiting for us all.

No. He is not a bigot but a supernatural being who is in heaven watching everybody of us here in earth. He is fair to his creatures.
In punishing His creatures, He is fair to given judgement to sinners and non sinners.
we could not question the law of God as you are now questioning saying that He descriminate other poeople. To God law is law or rule is rule. If you committed sin but refuse to ask forgiveness, that is your own lookout.

To me...that's like asking...."Is Santa Claus a bigot? He gives the white kids all the good toys..."
Something that doesn't exist can't discriminate.
