Does being adamantly opposed to same-sex marriage make someone a bigot?

227. "If Muslims bigoted views are subject to change, then they should change them without delay."

My point is that they do not view them as bigoted. Just like the rest of the religious world don't believe themselves to be bigots.

In fact, I would argue that there are hundreds of millions of religious people who believe that you are engaging in immoral behavior if you are not following some of the critical instructions of their religions.

They would probably tell you to change your views without delay.

My response to your question was to ask my question. If the majority does not make something moral then what does? Who has the "right" morality? How is that determined?

I am certainly not arguing that appeal to religious authority has any legitimacy. I am, suggesting, however, that there was a time when most of the world did not object morally to slavery. It was a common feature of societies around the world for centuries. Now most of the world believes it to be an immoral practice. Is that something that humanity has evolved to understand? Did people back then know they were behaving immorally even though it was an accepted practice? Are there, therefore, any currently accepted practices that humanity will eventually evolve to deem immoral?

I find this a fascinating conversation - I hope you don't take anything personally. I love discussing philosophical questions like this.
