Do you know what a tautology is?

Well since nobody knows what the hell you are talking about, how do you expect a decent answer. Usually when someone is being called ignorant they are saying something that isn't right, but they are too "ignorant" to realise!
Let me guess, you've been called ignorant a lot haven't you!!!!

Depends. Right and wrong is a relative term in the absence of a supreme ruling. If you're speaking religiously then God has 10 simple rules. Other than that, everything else is made up by man's mind and what make one man think he knows what Tastey Wheat really tastes like!
Everything is based on mutual agreement or arbitration.
We call the sky BLUE, by mutual agreement. If we didn't agree on THAT word, we'd be calling it something else.
There are few absolutes and even those have names we have mutally agreed upon.
Now, you gave no example, so we can't draw any concuslions other than to generalize.

CRITICIZATION is one OF the finer ways to get appeared as intelligent before others. To sustain control over others. To hide one's Ignorance. A sense of EGO gratification that ' I KNOW BETTER '.....................!

I don't think that's how the person calling them ignorant interprets it.

What? you have to tell us what you say is right, before we can answer this.

same reason you won't believe that i'm jesus just because i say i am. if jesus is god and never lies and a man types "i am jesus of nazareth" on the computer then you should believe him, right? at least i know i'm right when i say i am (he).
