Yeah, intolerant!

That's the difference I'm referring to.

Almost everyone has strongly held views. The difference is that a bigot doesn't tolerate the views of others.

And I still think that "Bigot" also implies prejudice -- the kind that prejudges the individual by perciving that individual only as part of that individual's "group".
