"So is someone who is anti-[insert religion here] a bigot? Many on this forum don’t think so."

The answer to your question is probably yes...

However,

Christians travel all over the world and provide food, clothing, and medical services to the people of third world nations solely for the opportunity to tell them "the Gospel" (also translated "the Good News"). Those who do not wish to listen to or accept this "Good News" are free to reject it. Sometimes Christians remain there helping when it is clear that the indigenious peoples of that region are not likely to accept "the Word" being offered.

Muslims, on the other hand, also go through out the world and prosletize but they also, upon reaching a majority of a regional population, begin killing all who do not accept their word that "There is only one god and Mohammad is his prophet".

In this case, it's not so much bigotry as human nature to respond to such vicious and vile behavior. In this nation, we accept other religions; I have no problem with the Jewish Faith, or Buddhist Faith, or Hindu Faith but I do have a problem with Islam - a Faith that openly preaches Hate and Discontent in the United States and around the world (and calls Israel the "Little Satan" and the United States the "Big Satan" and declares that both must be eliminated from the face of the earth).

I'm not going quietly and if that makes me a 'bigot' then perhaps I ought to investigate where I can have some buttons and bumper stickers made up.

That is a gross generalization of Islam. And it ignores that many Christian churches go into countries and proselyte when the law prohibits them from doing so. And those same Christians lie in order to get around the law.

Christ like?
