Is It Better To Have, Knowledge Or Complete Ignorance?

Some think that people with knowledge of the world’s complexities and its limitations are often unhappy, while their less-knowledgeable counterparts remain contented. They think that being ignorant of the cold reality surrounding them will bring them happiness because their minds will be peaceful and innocent. However, knowledge is a very strong element to world development. It allows great things to be achieved. Therefore, knowledge actually does make one happier.

Life without knowledge is like a boat that has never met the water. It may seem content at the moment, but it will never know its true purpose. Education has been a source for philosophical discussion by people like Ray Bradbury in Fahrenheit 451, and authors of a spectrum of articles about the effects knowledge on happiness such as Zachary Aldwin, Kevin Johnsrude, and journalists from U.S. News and many more. Giving people knowledge and awareness of the world around them gives a sense of direction and happiness. Even though differences in opinion are what causes violence, without learning and awareness, people cannot be happy because knowledge gives us perspective on what happiness is, helps us stay on the right path, and can fill the void materialism creates.

There are two contradictory phrases that are both very common and accessible by people of all races, social statuses, ages, and backgrounds: “knowledge is power” and “ignorance is bliss”. Both are very relatable: “knowledge” can refer to common sense, street smarts, book smarts, etc., while “ignorance” can be pure lack of knowledge, choosing to ignore certain facts, being taught unknowledgeable things, etc. While both of these ideas are valid -- in certain situations, ignorance can be better than knowledge and vice versa -- for the most part, knowledge is more of an advantage than ignorance.

Why is gaining knowledge so important? Throughout history people have been pursuing knowledge. Humanity as a whole has always strove to learn new things or make new discoveries; however, is the saying “ignorance is bliss” true?

In the poems "The Lamb" and "The Tyger," William Blake uses symbolism, tone, and rhyme to advance the theme that God can create good and bad creatures. The poem "The Lamb" was in Blake's "Songs of Innocence," which was published in 1789. "The Tyger," in his "Songs of Experience," was published in 1794.

The most leading literary device used in Blake’s poems is symbolism. In this particular poem, “The Lamb” is a reference to God himself. This is because of the trinity that is involved with being a Christ follower. The trinity is the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. The child in the poem, is a symbol as innocence and purity just like Jesus Christ. Christians are to “receive the kingdom of God like a child” (Luke 18:17, ESV). This means that we are to have child-like faith, and trust in God, just like children do in their parents.

Child Psychology, study of children's behavior-including physical, cognitive, motor, linguistic, perceptual, social, and emotional characteristics-from birth through adolescence. Child psychologists attempt to explain the similarities and differences among children and to describe normal as well as abnormal behavior and development. They also develop methods of treating social, emotional, and learning problems and provide therapy privately and in schools, hospitals, and other institutions.
