I mean, you can not like door to door salesmen, telemarketers, e-mail spammers and not be bigoted.

bigot
One who is strongly partial to one’s own group, religion, race, or politics and is intolerant of those who differ.

a person who is intolerant of any ideas other than his or her own, esp on religion, politics, or race

a person who is obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices; especially : one who regards or treats the members of a group (as a racial or ethnic group) with hatred and intolerance

Good definition, but it raises the question I was really trying to ask in the first place:

If someone considers homosexuality a sin but that belief does NOT in any way reflect how they treat gay people, are they a bigot?
