Is Ignorance BLISS?


Question: If ignorance is bliss, who's ignorant around here; supporters of the war on terror or me and other non-supporters? It's the non-supporters who are unhappy. Think about that.

The people who are the least blissful regarding this whole FAKE war on terror are the non-supporters. The supporters are all gung-ho and ready. And since most sayings are accurate as they have withstood the test of time, well, that really should open your eyes to who are the ignorant ones.
Answers: You do have some interesting logic. One would conclude that the Supporters are plugged into the Matrix, and the non-supporters are struggling against the Matrix?

Ignorance isn't bliss, but letting go of worry is bliss.
Some ignorant people just don't worry about what they do not know, if that makes any sense to you. So really, it's not the knowledge/stupidity, it's the worry and the not worrying.
It is if your an aspiring vagrant.
ignorance is bliss...I have no opinion of the war...I stay out of it...and I don't watch the news...too depressing
there are ignorant people in both camps, supporters and non-supporters...you should be able to understand this, unless of course...youre ignorant
Its always been obvious who the ignorant ones are. War supporters never tried to justify their actions with facts or data, just general fears (because the terrorists are really looking to bomb Wyoming) and patriotism.
Bliss is ignorance. No one could be happy knowing of all the horrors in the world.
NO, it's just plain old ignorance. No war in which people are dying and fighting so that you have the right to profess you political views is a FAKE! Ask my 21-year-old nephew, son of a lawyer and District court judge (and personal friends of the Bushes), if he feels he's wasting his time (currently enroute to Iraq). In fact, he volunteered for the Navy. ...and no supporter of the right to protect our country should ever be called ignorant.
You say gung-ho and ready, and yet they are not enlisted in the army, they are hypocrites.
One thing for sure. those that voted for Bush Twice would vote for him again if they could. They vote the billfold not the good of the Country. They could care less about what is Godly and Decent. They also could care less that America is not safer now.
Republicans let 30 million illegals walk into America and they want more illegals not less. They love cheap labor.
Ignorance is only bliss so long as that ignorance does not cause you pain, or come back to haunt you (so to speak).

I have always taken this proverb to basically mean that people too stupid, or frightened, or lazy to see the wider implications of things such as the war on terror are also the ones who don't lose their minds in contemplation of the horror of the world...

Honestly, how many people do you know who have been diagnosed with a serious long-term mental illness who you would consider to be ignorant of the world and life in general?

This ignorance can only last so long before the ramifications become clear. It will be a sad and triumphant day for those of us who have had the courage to deal with it our whole lives.


Em
Depends.
Quite simply.. ignorance is suicide.
No,knowledge is the only true power.
