Examples
Does this page need examples of bigotry? I'm not saying the current examples aren't good examples of bigotry (most of them are), but I can't help but think that most of these examples are not put up to give a clearer understanding of bigotry, but to make a political statement. --Ben Talk 18:06, 13 November 2008 (EST)
- No, yet again, examples will never prove a point, especially when these examples are so fraught with opinion. HelpJazz 18:12, 13 November 2008 (EST)
- Examples will never prove a point? Examples are the basis of all argument. They are fact. They are evidence. RodWeathers 18:14, 13 November 2008 (EST)
- What do you mean, examples have never proven a point? Can you give an example where they've ever failed? --Ed Poor Talk 18:16, 13 November 2008 (EST)
- Sorry, maybe I missed something, why was the violence against abortion clinics removed as an example with the reason "The evidence being compiled is ample" only to be replaced with another example. If it was deleted on accident, then let me know and Ill put it back in. Also, I might just be naive, but isn't saying all members of a single group are bigots, in fact, also bigotry? The only defining characteristic of Atheists is that they don't believe in God. Some of them may be bigots, but so are some Christians, Jews, and pagans. Using an atheist who is claiming "all religious people should be locked up" is a good example of bigotry. Saying all atheists are like that is wrong. If I am correct, then the into should be changed since it is attributing bigotry to all members of the listed groups. --ScottA 18:35, 13 November 2008 (EST)
