Did you pick one of those definitions from way down on the list?  <wag

My Websters (yes, it really *is* a furry Cadillac!) defines prejudice as:

	Preconceived judgement or opinion

But in any case my point was that I have negative opinion and anitpathy
toward PK'ers, and that I believe it is perfectly justified and good for me
to do so.  This is in contrast to the fellow who compared prejudice against
homosexuals with prejudice against PK'ers, as if both kinds of so-called
"prejudice" were morally equivalent.
