"me thinks...rcg....doesn't really know the meaning of the word bigotry."

That's silly. I know the dictionary definition(s). I also know that use of the word in labeling conduct is almost a taboo in our culture because the common reference is to bigoted behavior that is injustly applied to someone not of one's group. I frequently put the words 'bigoted' and 'extremist' together but since people here respond to both terms as synonyms, as most people everywhere do, I don't always see that as necessary. The extremist part is usually understood in conversation.

You attempted to make something out of my use of the word 'bigot' by it self. I'm figure you are convinced you accomplished your goal and feel it was important somehow. OK.
