I have been called a bigot

I told someone that I opposed a new mosque at Ground Zero. I was informed that made me a bigot.
We see many broken homes. When we share sex after marraige and other principles that not only are moral, they are beneficial, we get the label.

I opposed the healthcare reform. I have purchased employee coverages since the 70's and see it is expensive and rising. I knew by reading legislation, many things would be new requirements. I also knew the promise of the price falling 2,500 dollars was not only false, it could rise no less than that for a family. I was called a bigot.
My Bishop and I agree. We love the homosexuals and oppose gay marriage. We are both called bigots.
Someone is daily calling Governor Palin a bigot.

What is behind this? Some of it is energy caused from pain and bitterness in the accuser. They take it out on people with different ideas. The political correctness movement has rigid ideology and the ultimate rebuke for the person that is not politically correct is to wear the badge of a bigot.


Sample:
Quote:
“He said that people who were opposed to health-care reform were similar to the bigots and racists that were against desegregation reform,” a Republican congressional intern who attended the lecture told The Daily Caller. The intern requested not to be named. “It was ridiculous,” he added.
We are having revival in our church. I see much of this is not political but spiritual warfare. We are living in a hurting world. I have been accused of being a fundamentalist once this year. It was more frequent in previous years. Fundies are also called dangerous.

It is time consuming, but much of this is repressed anger. People have easily triggered outbursts.

1 Samuel 8:6-9 = They're not rejecting you, they're rejecting me

Was Samuel the first biblical bigot? The people wanted a big king like the modern countries had.
