Do you know what a bigot is?

I ask this because I often have it thrown at me for my personal beliefs. Does that make any sense? I see the majority of people calling others bigots in here and it all looks like its just because they aren't saying what the other person would like to hear! Just because a person holds to a certain thing doesn't mean they are a bigot. What in the world would we look like if we believed everything just because people would think we're prejudice else wise? Why do people have to be bigots just because they choose to disagree with certain things? I mean if I don't like the way something sounds, and I disagree that does not make me a bigot!
