gnosonarcissism

This word is a combination of "gnosis" (knowledge) and "narcissism" (self-centeredness). So, gnosonarcissism is a self-centered view that one's level of knowledge is correct and/or complete despite what others know. This implies a lack of understanding that others might know more in areas of knowledge in either a horizontal way (breadth of knowledge) or a vertical way (depth of knowledge).

Because of his gnosonarcissism, he was unable to believe that the ideas of others could ever be better than his own ideas.

gnosoarsonist

"Gnosis" means "knowledge", and "arsonist" means "someone who sets fire to property", so a gnosoarsonist attempts metaphorically to destroy knowledge perceived to be unacceptable. He seeks to suppress knowledge contrary to his own stand rather than winning others over by reason or truth.

He was a gnosoarsonist who thought that a "liberal" view favoring racial diversity should be destroyed. He didn't understand that such a view was "humanist" and affirming of understanding and acceptance in an expansive manner.
