A position or movement opposing the authority of scriptures; a philosophy rejecting sacred texts as ultimate truth.
From antiscriptural + -ism. The -ism suffix creates a noun representing an entire philosophical position or movement against scriptural authority, following the standard pattern for creating ideologies from adjectives.
Antiscripturism emerges in religious movements that claim direct revelation or modern prophets supersede ancient texts—think of Mormonism or Pentecostalism, which added to scripture rather than following it alone. Yet these movements would argue they're not antiscriptural but super-scriptural.
