I'm sure a believer who has studied his/her own religion and theology will less likely to fit into this description of yours.Why would you be sure of such a thing? If their religion and theology is ignorance on parade at what point will studying (and subscribing to) that ignorance lead to anything other than continued ignorance?
Quote:Only those who speak from the baseless words of others, like for example, a friend told me that he heard from someone that clapping your hands is haram. However, no such thing can be found in scripture nor in any related religious literature. He is gullible enough to state and even further defend this position, due to his ignorance of theology. So,you see, they go hand in hand.What is scripture other than the baseless words of others? Why would it matter whether he manufactured this taboo or some other asshole before him manufactured it? Enlighten me.
