I think you people are confusing bigotry with "making fun of". Bigotry is a complete intolerance; it's not "making fun of" ones religion (not that it's a nice thing to do, however).

btw, I had an aggie tell me today there is no way our "26 year old white gjuys" could hang with their inner-city kids. I then asked him if athletics was the only way inner-city kids were allowed on campus. His reply was that they have a "special program for them" and there is not any white guys on the team anymore. Scary stuff.

I agree with this guy that making fun of is not necessarily bogotry. Is Blues Brothers a bigoted film? How about SNL's Church lady? Father Vito Sarducci? Are South Park's spoofs on religion bigoted? I don't know what the TAM fans have done vis-a-vis Mormonism, but "religius bigotry" is a ridiculously overused term.

I think more than anything else Sooner and Waters like a fight. But I haven't read this thread except the very end of it and don't intend to because I don't want anything to interfere with the ardor of my rooting for A&M tomorrow.
