Today I will more than likely offend some of my readers…
Honestly, I really hope I do… I don’t know how many people actually read blogs…
it’s not many, but this will also be a test of that as well.
To begin with, this is an attempt to introduce to some,
further the concept in other’s and possibly even confirm to a few the idea that
the vast majority of the world lives in the bubble of an illusion created for
them to pen them up in their very own self-induced cage.
Let me define a few words.. Ignorance, Arrogance, and
Stupidity.
Ignorance: Noun: A lack of knowledge,
education, or awareness (Webster-Merriam); Synonyms: cluelessness, innocence,
nescience, obliviousness, in the dark; Antonyms: awareness, familiarity
Most people are
ignorant of many things… and that’s ok… as long as they know they’re ignorant. If
you don’t know how to fix the brakes on your car, it would be best to get
someone who knows how to fix them then to try and fix them yourself.
Arrogance: Noun: An attitude of
superiority manifested in an overbearing manner or in presumptuous claims or
assumptions (Webster-Merriam); Synonyms: high horse, pompousness, presumptuousness,
pretentiousness, self-importance; Antonyms: humility, modesty
Arrogance is a much bigger problem than Ignorance. This is
where people think they know when they really have no clue. For example, most
people today recognize racism as ignorance but don’t know that nationalism is
the very same thing.
