Amos, it is very important to recognise that bigotry is not a synonym of ignorance or inability to achieve perspective. Bigotry requires a degree of deliberateness in ignoring half the evidence within an argument. It requires determination to be unbending in the light of rational opposition to your cause. It requires a degree of malevolence and bloodymindedness. Finally, it requires a degree of hatred of a section of humanity who have done nothing to deserve your bile. "Done nothing" is quite an important codicil.
