Ignorance of what I have forbidden to know

In esoteric thought, religious and dogmatic, ignorance is justified by saying that a higher being ordered to ignore me.

Magical thinking, religious, mystical, dogmatic, provides many advantages that would appear to be an act of intelligence to adhere to this practice, go with personal insights, submit to what others say without making the slightest effort to verify those sayings.

Studying is something striven long as what is done is actually studying.

Let me put it another way:

- If you're trying to do is confirm our occurrences of what reality is and are willing to abandon our assumptions more intuitive for demonstrable knowledge to some extent, that's really study;

- If you try to memorize is what certain people in our society (teachers, writers, priests) argue in their speeches, lectures, books, then we are not studying but adoctrinándonos, we are driving our personal occurrences to accommodate personal occurrences of some characters who have risen to fame for some reason that is irrelevant now analyze.

Learning is hard when it is trying to transform us abandon our infantile ideas to replace them by knowledge someone can confirm.

When I first say that "magical thinking, religious, mystical, dogmatic, provides many advantages that would appear to be an act of intelligence to adhere to this practice, ..." I'm trying to say is that with that kind of reasoning is consistent claim that what we do not know just ignored because some supernatural being forbids us know.

As legend has biblical Adam and Eve were convicted of trying to eat from the tree of knowledge of good and evil, believing this we can say that all knowledge unknown unknown not because I took the trouble to find out but because I do not know.
