I will excuse your bigotry because I believe it is due to ignorance.

Certainly when one reaches across the aisle, one’s hand can be bitten. I accept that as par for the course. (I ask you to look in the bigotry mirror.)

Ma’am (tell me if it should be the other gender) I am not sure why you call my dissent “bigotry.” Disagreeing means disagreeing. It has nothing to do with “why” I disagree.

I’m not always diplomatic to a fine point. But I try robustly to bring the love of Christ to bear over the picture. I don’t say a rosary can’t be useful. I would dissent from some of the theological characterizations connected with particular rosary beads. I understand it to be a very revered tradition. It is a mnemonic for a list of prayers. I believe I very much grasp the sense of honor. I simply disagree with some of the referenced theology. Evangelical followings give very rational reasons for this. They are concerned with any mystery that does not (at least to them) obviously point the glory at God. At the risk of sounding utterly hateful, I could say that just because you asked an entity to pray to God doesn’t mean the entity will, or the entity is what you think it is.

Then someone will NOT forgive your ignorance as they may believe it is bigotry.
