I would rather know a little, honestly. Because what pisses me off about information today is that I don’t really know who’s value I am to take and even be skeptical towards. So I’d rather know little.

I wish I was a gas cloud with a dim awareness beyond mortal comprehension or a little bug that lives on a cactus flower. Something allowed to be ignorant and still fulfil its role in the universe. Unfortunately that wish is evil because we have to climb the chain of being forever.
If it makes you feel any better, on a universal scale we’re as insignificant as bugs and I’m sure quite nearly as ignorant.
In the late 1800’s someone said that we nearly know all that there is to know, look at what’s happened since and I wouldn’t be surprised at all if knowledge continued to increase a such a rate.
I completely diagree, the conscious part of the universe is the most important. We also have a terrible responsibility to guard it. We can’t give ourselves up to personal satisfaction or serenity while most of humanity suffers. It’s gleaming light completely overshadowed by pain.
