Bigots are usually hungry for power and wealth.
One of the best fictional characters I have read that summons up the greedy, power hungry and completely noxious shadow man of God Archetype, is Big Jim Rennie in Stephen King's novel The Dome.
Well worth a read. King is a master of his art.

The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
