What is bigoted about my statement? It states in simple terms basic Mormon tennants and beliefs. These beliefs are the basis of their concern with genealogy, and also the reason behind the mistakes they make when they practise it. Your letter to me was emotional. There is a real issue at stake here with my Carpenter family. By the way, my dictionary definition for 'bigoted' is, "intolerantly convinced of a particular creed."
