Great idea, should be common practise

I think you may be disappointed.

Reality is plentiful.

^ Right now the world is reeling under the shock of the impossible happening ... Andy winning a slam. Once they recover, the rockets and subterranean shelters will start on the double. I think starting November the craziness will begun.

Seats on my home built rocket are sellin out fast, anyone interested contact me fast. Mention food preference too. We can eject you on Mars or Jupiter if you don't wanna go all the way to my extravagant resort in Uranus.

Heat seeking missiles successfully deployed in direction of incoming extra-solar spaceships. Look forward to fireworks in night-sky in a month. No going back now -- hope they weren't friendly.

Or perhaps its the pride that ignorant people carry their ignorance with ?.. A case of ' As ignorant as we wanna be...'

What’s wrong with ignorance? We are all ignorant of something.

Ignorance is bliss.

What is wrong with ignorance is that often problems accumulate and accelarate as a result. Debt is one example of many.

'Ignorance is bliss' is a really more myth than fact , kind of a BS statement imo and many others.

The fundamental cause of trouble in the world today is that the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt.
~ Bertrand Russell

To surrender to ignorance and call it God has always been premature, and it remains premature today.
~ Isaac Asimov

That statement by Mr Russell is pretty good..
Science works because of it.
Unfortunately we are doing damage.

In fact there is an increasing amount of indications and observations showing we have transgressed certain boundaries / budgets in what life can sustain and therefore are in for it. These were in most instances passed a few years ago . So pre 2012 already..

Dejection turns to despair as it seems that the end is not really near.

The so called end is far away. The vague definítion of 'the end' is more present than ever.

Due to the alignment $$$$, we'll move to a higher frequency, and evolve into post-humans, basically asexual reproduction, higher dimensional beings with superpowers, read minds and that kind of @@@@, be in five places at the same time, be anywhere at once, time travel, live on sunshine and air, we will be immortal, no death, no aging, no crapping, no sleep, no crime, we'll come out of this consensual hallucination called the world.
