fanatisme, onverdraagzaamheid Explanation: Hi Rudmer, Van Dale Groot woordenboek Engels-Nederlands geeft voor bigotry dweperij, fanatisme, onverdraagzaamheid. Oxford advanced learners dict. omschrijft het als: showing that one refuses to listen to or accept the opinions of others.

Indeed, the authors are guilty of religious bigotry on several counts http://minerva.athenet.net/~jlindsay/textbooks.html |

blinde dweepzucht/fanatisme/raciale of halsstarrige intolerantie,... Explanation: is another possibility and without knowing what you really want to express, it's quite difficult to choose the right translation. Bigotry also means onverdraagzaamheid, fanatisme, raciale (of halsstarrige,...) intolerantie,... By the way, mistake in source text: should be '...my belief...' HTH |
