By realizing ignorance is not bliss. It’s simply ignorance.

Ignorance is simply the lack of knowledge. We all are more ignorant than we are knowledgeable. Does certain knowledge not bring you pain?

Maybe ignorance just seems like bliss. I choose my battles over any others even if they feel intense at times.

I found that the best way for me to tip the scales was to reframe the task of searching for knowledge. I developed my own approach called “Epithinking.” Epi, meaning from above, has become a great way for me to be able to seperate the emotion from the event by stepping easily into an observational frame of mind. This has allowed me to examine information without reflexively attaching an emotion, which in turn protects me from taking a side too quickly. It is an intellectual posture as well as a process.

I’m sure that type on-demand detachment took a considerable amount of practice.

That explains why God wanted free will for men. He must be miserable up there.
