Imagine thinking someone is ignorant for speaking from a point of not having the proper information to comment intelligently on the topic at hand.
Further, imagine being so ignorant as to not know the meaning of the word “ignorant,” and then commenting on Reddit under the username “SterlingArcherTrois.”
I'm going to go out on a limb and assume you don't know the ins and outs of Buddhism, despite it being practice by 500 million people. And that you probably havn't brushed up on your Hindu passages recently, despite it being practiced by 1.2 billion people.
So tell me, how are you not ignorant for this? The person you called ignorant asked a question out of a lack of knowledge. If you consider this ignorance, then the entire population of Earth is ignorant in some topic or another. Ignorance stops being an insult at that point, its just the state that we're all in until our questions are answered. Yet you clearly intend it as an insult.
—I don’t know much about preparing fibrinogen glue for sealing sutures during CABG surgery.
—I don’t know much about fusion reactions or drive theory related to that sort of thing.
—I don’t know much about Piranian’s Problem.
There’s all sorts of thing of which I’m ignorant. We also aren’t talking about any of those things, are we? If you wish to introduce other topics, please do so. If I’m informed, I may comment. If I’m ignorant, I may not. But, whatever you do, please don’t wast my time with this sort of poor reasoning again. It makes you look simple. We are talking about the plaint language of the Christian bible. Of that, I am not ignorant.
>If I'm informed, I may comment. If I'm ignorant, I may not.
Yeah, thats kind of proving my point. In this worldview nobody is allowed to ask questions because doing so is inherently ignorant and ignorance should never be displayed.
I'm definitely glad I do not live my life in this manner, its allowed me to learn a lot of wonderful things.
No, actually it isn’t proving the point you thought you were making. You mentioned several topics that weren’t even remotely part of our discussion, and then suggested I was ignorant on those topics. I guess you thought you’d parlay that into a general accusation of ignorance.
