Thanks Motley. I agree on all your points. Bigotry would be pre-judging our Muslim fellow citizens with the assumption that they take Sharia law literally, would commit the barbarities we read about elsewhere, or want them to be legal here, or are guilty of doing things that are illegal here. I hope nobody does that kind of pre-judging based on religion. I don't know you and I have no reason to assume you do.

I don't think we can blame our Muslim fellow citizens for barbarities elsewhere any more than we can blame our fellow Christians for the Oklahoma City bombing or the crimes against gays. I hope you agree.
