I am perfectly fine with ignorance for there is room to learn. What I can't take is that stupidity, the continuous adamant insistence of unproven facts.
And with this, I say this with kind intend - I am here to help you. I am here to teach you to differentiate between what is true or false.
This skill requires a lot determination and acceptance that you can not always be right and it is always alright to be wrong.
We are all humans, it is perfectly normal to be wrong. To be right all the time is still ok too, given that you are actually right all the time and not convincing yourself that it is right based on your personal convictions. We all wouldn't necessarily enjoy that but it is what it is. We all can be wrong and admitting that is ok. Admitting that you're ignorant IS OK
When that phase passes on, we go on to learn. We sit down and read and write and contemplate and doubt and write and doubt ourselves again and learn and learn and learn...
Basically, we learn because that's what humans do. That's what every living animal does, we learn to try increase our knowledge of our surroundings.
But the sad truth is that sometimes knowing too much can also be the death of you.
You will eventually acquire that want to know which soon elevates from a want to an everlasting NEED to know.
You are mentally engrossed to know more; enthusiastic to want to know everything there is to know and when you do, then you're in fear.
Emotionally you're hooked on to this drug of knowledge that because you know everything, you know society doesn't apply any of these knowledges to everyday lives.
Knowing everything means total social suicide. Socialism turns...awkward.
Everything seems different to you, the world turns into something that has a different definition for you.
The definition of Earth is as different as it is for everybody else; and as to you too.
Living becomes somewhat not as fundamental as it used to be. It becomes somewhat so complex, that the end seems to be really scary. Death is fear itself. But determination of contribute to society will always lean in favour to everything - even if it's death.
The inventions we see everyday has made our lives (the humans) way better than it was decades or centuries ago - and is these inventors that thought about purpose in life and made measures to contribute to the human race rather to fear the inevitable.
So at the end of the day eventually, it's you who decide how you want to live and how you want to be remembered by the human race or the Earth race itself in it's whole.
Knowledge is power, but Ignorance is bliss
So at the end of the day, it is entirely up to you how you want your information received.
