Hutcherson is unequivocal. Because Teeley, who is openly gay, has called the pastor a bigot, "Can't I say he's the prejudiced one?" Hutcherson asked.


Interesting question.

If a person who is violently anti-gay is a bigot, is not somebody who is violently anti-anti-gay equally a bigot?

We like to think that when we oppose something we see as evil, we're being humane, but when our opponent opposes something they see as evil, they're prejudiced. But prejudice (pre-judgment) works both ways, doesn't it?
