text: Then by the textbook definition you misuse the label in reply to Paul Conte.  We don't condemn RELIGION but the actions taken by people using religion to justify "hatred, contempt, and intolerance on the basis of a person's ethnicity, (other) RELIGION(s), national origin, gender, sexual orientation, disability, socioeconomic status, or other characteristics."  In addition one might add supporting economic ideologies which justify greed, corruption and warmongering for profit all supposedly at odds with, in this case Evangelical Christian dogma, at the expense of lives and national economic well-being.
  In spite of the belief by Evangelical and Fundamentalist Christians their religious freedom does not include foisting their faith on others through the power of law.  Opposing that is not bigotry it's self-preservation.
