Read what BIGOT is correctly defined as in the dictionary.
"a person who strongly and unfairly dislikes other people,"
When a person has not done what the Bereans did by looking at the bible to see if the bible taught what they are hearing someone teach, but simply shut it out because it's not what they were ever taught, they are doctrinal bigots. The bible says a person who does not search out a matter before they judge it is considered commits folly, and folly is what fools do. Prov 18:13.
So, all these people who ONLY LOOK TO SEE FAULT in a an eschatological they were not taught, instead of checking the bible and giving it a chance in case it's something they SHOULD believe, too, are eschatological bigots.

Beloved, I saw it coming for awhile...but now it's obvious. You have finally put
one of your feet on the ground of preterism, but your other foot is still kind of
dangling on the fence from your knee...barely.
The only thing that true believers should REALLY agree on is the gospel. Every-
thing hinges on that. Next would be the Ministry: for it is the hand of God; it is
used to guide the flock, or to correct it. Together, the Ministry is called to perféct,
to teach the gospel, and to edify the Church.
Should we have fellowship with those that preach AGAINST the gospel? (Not
that preterists, as a whole, are against the gospel or have another gospel: but
some do.) Some have
forsaken the gospel that you and I embrace. Should
we have fellowship with them? Of course not: but we should endeavor to bring
all men to the faith...and some to REGAIN the faith, if at all possible.
Does our gospel rest on fulfilled prophecies? Or do fulfilled prophecies STAND
on the gospel that saves?
"..and having done all...stand."
