There are many Christians and Muslims, and the few Jews I've meet, that I like; but all 3 of their religions are dumb.

Calling a man who had sex with a 9 year-old a pedophile isn't hate speech.

Sure, I don't disagree religion is dumb.

It is, the bible and Torah also have incest and pedophilia, pointing out one but not the others implies one is worse than the others.

I didn't say it was hate speech btw, I said you were being racist and bigoted which you objectively are.

I often mock Christianity based on Bible verses. In Leviticus, lesbians aren't condemned, the New Testament says women should generally shut up, and King Solomon was a tit-man.

You are so accurate.

Please, tell me what else do you objectively know about me.

Maybe so, you didn't this time you only chose Muslims. Now remind me, what is Palestine largely made up of? Oh yeah Muslims, I wonder if that's relevant and why I called you a bigot.

You just admitted to hating religion, that's objectively by your own admission bigoted. You ain't too smart are ya, you running on a Gameboy with half dead batteries or something?

I'm a bigot because I hate a religion?

By definition yes.

a person who is obstinately or unreasonably attached to a belief, opinion, or faction, especially one who is prejudiced against or antagonistic toward a person or people on the basis of their membership of a particular group.

You know, like a religion or something.

a person who is obstinately or unreasonably attached to a belief, opinion, or faction, especially one who is prejudiced against or antagonistic toward a person or people on the basis of their membership of a particular group.

huh?

It's the definition of a bigot, keep up hoss. I know it's hard to keep up when you reply to all of my comment chains but you brought that on yourself.

IIUC, bigotry is against a person or people.

So add can't read or doesn't trust dictionaries to the pile of stupid shit you've said today.

a person who is obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices

a person who is intolerant or hateful toward people whose race, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation, etc., is different from the person's own.

a person who has strong, unreasonable beliefs and who does not like other people who have different beliefs or a different way of life:

I find it fixing hilarious you either don't know or are arguing against the definition of bigotry on a comment chain discussing..... Bigotry.

wt:bigot#English

Noun

bigot (plural bigots)

1a. One who is narrow-mindedly devoted to their own ideas and groups, and intolerant of (people of) differing ideas, races, genders, religions, politics, etc.

2b. (obsolete) One who is overly pious in matters of religion, often hypocritically or else superstitiously so.

Way to provide a definition that agrees you're a bigot, bold of you to be so proud of.

bigotry ≠ opposition
