Ignorance in the Age of Technology



Ignorance in the Age of Technology

The development of technology (in every aspect and meaning of the word), has increased more in the last fifty years than what it did in the prior 200, which has provided the world  new  tools for learning and intellectual enrichment and yet ignorance is bless for many.

Google, Yahoo, Big, name the searcher and you’ll find more than 50 billion facts on any words or subjects you can think of.

Why is it, then, that a 16 years old teenage could be so ignorant as to search in the internet for things such as: ‘’what’s the biggest planet in the world?’’ or ‘’are there any humans in Canada?’’. These are, by the way, true questions.


The more available information and knowledge is, the less the masses seek for it. The truth is humankind has succumbed to do the following of a mediocre, political-directed global system, whose control has gone so far as to convince them that it is technology, not knowledge, the way to save our broken planet.
