No, I think you're incorrect. Dave pointed out that you were name-calling a group of people simply because you do not agree with some of their practices. There are several religious leaders with extensive education on the topics you're discussing who still find them to be important.

While I agree that many of these practices are not as applicable to modern day life, I think many people hold onto them out of a sense of tradition and deference to their ancestors. That doesn't make them ignorant by any sense of the word.

What this really comes down to is acceptance of other people's practices. Dismissing them as ignorant does not show acceptance.
