Fair enough, but I'd like to know what the mods think of it, because in my eyes, calling someone ignorant on a particular subject and then going into detail why they believe you're being ignorant isn't even close to name calling.
If he had just said "you're ignorant", and left it at that, then I'd agree it was out of line. But in the context of the point he was making about your line of thinking, he felt ignorant was the appropriate term. He didn't seem like he was going "I want to call this guy a name, so I'll call him ignorant".
