The words "bigotry" and "discrimination" are not synonymous, and therefore should not be conflated.

Last time I checked, bigotry carried a negative connotation, and rightly so, and I don't think that it requires "a lot of the current world view" in my perspective to arrive at that conclusion.

So do you discriminate?

Yes, and doing so does not make anyone a bigot.

Are all behaviors equal?

No, and holding that opinion doesn't make anyone a bigot.

Are all ideas equal? No, and holding that opinion doesn't make anyone a bigot.

Bigotry is unchristian?

Yes.

Wow? Jesus came to divide, not be inclusive.

...and He did every bit of it without being a bigot!

And the left has been defining words for how long? Where have you learned this negative connotation? Probably watching Archie Bunker?

What exactly is wrong with the definition?

a person who is intolerant toward those holding different opinions

We need more bigots, people that will stand for a position and are intolerant of inferior behavior, ideas.

Again, God are VERY intolerant. So much so that many are going to hell.
