I’m surprised to see this level of dishonesty and am-harutzus from you. Please post a makor for such an idea, as I don’t believe it exists. Regardless (and this is the amharutzus), even if (according to your nonsense) it’s not in the geder of kefira, such a person would simply be an apikorus, or min, or just a plain old mimar.

All of these words have their own specific definitions, and collectivley they firmly reject any person who does not maintain a baseline yiddishkeit. There is simply zero place in klal yisroel for anyone who is not on board, including the greatest of talmidei chachomim and influential gedolim who can become a “zuken mamre” if they ever chalila cross that line.

Additionally, all these dinim are specifically ways that WE must judge OTHERS, and they are guidelines based specifically on what WE can see, not what goes on in their hearts. So, even if you would claim the above theory about an ignoramus and kefira, it wouldn’t change how WE must relate to such a rushe (it would only be relevant in beis din shel maaleh).
