re 41:  I don't often find myself strongly disagreeing with you, jep,
but in this case absolutely.  According to webster:
big*ot*ry: 1.  The state of mind of a bigot; obstinate and unreasoning
attachment of one's own belief and opinions, with narrow-minded intolerance
of beliefs opposed to them.
My opinions (and flem's, and likely most of those stated here) are based
on a lifetime of personal experience and serious consideration of the issues
involved.  They are not obstinate or unreasoning; they are however well-
grounded.  Hopefully, so are the pro-religious views.  There is disagreement,
as exists in any worthwhile discussion, and it is not surprising that a few
volleys online fail to reverse long-held opinions.  I don't think any of
this can be characterized as intolerance.
