What is the adjective of prejudice?

Words are like Numbers, in that 1, is One, but who would use words as their counterpart when computing mathematical calculations? As Similar, and Exact, are two different Animals, replacing one with the other, when the Exact word is Prejudice, and a Similar word would be by necessity, Similar, but not Exact, if the attempt is to show Prejudice, then Similar to Prejudice, could not be by the necessity of what Prejudice is, refer to Prejudice, but only something Similar, but not exactly Prejudice. Even if the words were used, that Define what Prejudice is composed of to make it what it is, the parts themselves, are only parts, and not the Whole of Prejudice itself. And as many words have similar parts in their definitions, to simply suggest that this one, or that one is similar to Prejudice, does not by any necessity of Definition make those parts Prejudice in themselves. So if Prejudice is the word you need to use, then using "Bias" or "Prejudge mental" would be part of the Definition, but they may also be parts of other definitions not associated with the Actual word "Prejudice" You could be "Bias" towards wearing a pair of slacks that make you look fat, without being Prejudice with regards to Fat people, or you could know your own taste, and not take a bite of blood sausage, without being Prejudice with regards to blood sausage, or those who actually eat it. Now I know someone is going to edit this, and simply add words that are Similar to Prejudice, but once again, Similar and exact are Two Different Animals, you just can't mate the one, with the other, and call it Prejudice.
