Mavkiki-
You need to be more specific about what you mean by religious bigotry.

No self-respecting C-E-F (labels are just great) would pretend to be the judge of who gets in or out of heaven, they might only report what they read in the bible about who God lets in or out (and the bible is quite clear that acceptance of Jesus's gift is key). It would of course, but a terrible thing to misrepresent what is in the bible.

If you mean actually treating people poorly based on their religious views (like not helping them out of a hole, or tending to their wounds (spiritual or otherwise)) based on their religious views, again, no self-respecting C-E-F would pretend that that was ok. The bible is quite clear that our loving actions should apply to all.

I'd like to discuss the issues you raised, but still need to know what you mean by religious bigotry.
