Okay Joe, I hear what your saying about tolerance and non-tolerant associated bigotry, but I just can't grasp the notion that if Dianavan's idea of eating the holy communion is cannabalism, then to her perhaps it is, why you call it bigoted? I could turn it right back at you then for your statement;

You must be unable to work in the peace movement or in poverty programs, because those movements are full of Christians. Even if they "turn the other cheek" and put up with your insults, you'd probably find them "patronizing" for doing so.

You see, I think you just associated me, a professed non-christian with someone who would insult others for their beliefs and that I couldn't work with christians in a peace rally. The difference being, I would never consider you to be a bigot for saying this! I only consider it your opinion!

Maybe I just don't understand the term bigot when used in a conversation that so many people have different views on.
So I refer to my dictionary- a narrow-minded person who holds blindly and intolerantly to a particular creed, opinion, etc.
I see what you mean by wanting tolerance and understanding, but I just am trying to work this out. Am I narrow minded or anyone else when they believe stongly in anything they do? or who they are? With the difference being to be tolerante to another viewpoint.
I'm starting to see what your saying as I sit here and contemplate! I still think people have the right to their beliefs without , oh hell....let me get back to you on this!

P.S. I don't believe in the devil either!
