Because of these feelings of worthlessness, they tend to displace this anger and hate towards themselves onto another group. The bigot is simply transferring their own sense of low self esteem and their own self hatred to another racial, cultural, or religious group. The bigot will stereotype, lie, about and persecute that group no matter what the truth. They will even go so far as to accuse the persecuted of being the persecutor or fabricate instances of persecution. Such reasoning is not reasoning at all, esp.
Most religions have some form of sin be it in the form of transgression against god or karma.
In a multi-religious nation like the United States where the practice of the religion of one's choice is protected by the Constitution, there is no reason for any kind of religious bigotry. These ends can be achieved all the so much easier if there is mutual cooperation and not the constant variations of the Jihad, the Crusades, the Holocaust. Perhaps the best way is to practice what most religions teach, be kind to your fellow man.
