I have a two part question:

1) How many practicing members does a religion need before it can command days off from school/work?

2) Can I interest any of you in converting to CBusAlexism? Our most sacred holiday is the Monday after the Super Bowl.

So the takeaway from all this is I speak my mind about not liking Muslims and I'm a bigot. Got it. Go ahead - join a jihad and put me in my place.

I don't care for liberals either. I don't care for spinach. I don't care for lots of things.

You all crack me up.

You're fixing to cross a line here, pal.

Let's call him to the mat and settle this right now.

T J - you like beans in your chili? Yes or No?

Can we get back to debating where Frosty the Snowman lives? Because it's the only part of this threat which has offered insightful commentary.

If my company decided to give us ab additional two days off I wouldn't care what religion it was for.

A holiday for Mormon wife-hunting or a day of tribute to the Flying Spaghetti Monster? I'm cool with that...

Heck, we already have Columbus Day.

do you not think you're a bigot? serious question.

No. I really don't. I'm prejudice yes. I think a bigot is one who outwardly expresses himself - even to their face (beyond an anonymous message board certainly). A person with prejudice may believe one thing, but is respectful and conscience enough to not allow that prejudice to manifest itself beyond that prejudice. I would give an individual person the benefit of the doubt, despite my prejudices against their group as a whole if I encountered them. I don't think a bigot would. That's why I think the use of the term bigot, while intended to paint me in the worst possible light, is inaccurate as hell. I'm definitely prejudice though. And I think me just coming right out and saying it offends some people.

Your writing ability might be as offensive as your prejudice. This reads like bad satire of a person who thinks the things you think.
