I'm pretty stupid

Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before... He is full of murderous resentment of people who are ignorant without having come by their ignorance the hard way.




Kurt Vonnegut, "Cat's Cradle"I am the man stated above.  Why am I always surprised at my ignorance?  I've been learning all my life but still I am ignorant of a great many things.  I've said all this before.  I doubt my situation will change even if I live to 90.

Sometimes the world is so wondrous and huge that I believe in God.

Then it slips away and I'm alone again.
