How people can choose hate and fear as a form of self-righteousness is the peak of narcissistic self-delusion. There's nothing noble about being a bigot. There's no honor in persecuting innocent people simply for existing. And it's the epitome of cowardice to try to destroy that which you do not understand.

I couldn't agree more. Your statement is so pointed that I'm going to save it to refer to in the future.
