Sometimes
it's hard to forgive
deliberate ignorance...
but at least it can be cured...
stupidity, on the other hand...

well
some people never grow up
coz they don't choose to
or is it the genetics?

Fuze... ignorance can be overcome...
stupidity is often a death sentence
which is why we carefully monitor our children, no?
Young and stupid should be covered by parental guidance... hopefully we will outgrow most of the "STUPID" before we leave home.
By the way... we can all be RA (responsible adult) and remain a child-at-heart... never grow up is my motto, friend Fuze... Ely

isn't wilful ignorance
stupidity?
i agree 100% re stupidity
a death sentence!!
young sometimes just like the cats, their curiosity gets the better of them
and yes..remaining child at heart, to me
a sign of maturity, wisdom dear Ely, an acknowledgement of human nature
yet never growing out of stupidity? well..God help them..we can only pray..i say

I think we tend to outgrow the first level of stupid, usually with parental guidance...
Same mostly, with Level II... the teen years (our poor parents!)
But Level III... well, that is more our own responsibility, and if we are NOT the questioning kind... we often bring, unchanged, our parents
views to the table without ever having questioned them at all...
we allow ourselves to be controlled by others who say only they know the way. Who try to shove their religions views off on everybody within reach... I better stop before I get into rant mode

Isn't it somewhat stupid to deliberately choose ignorance?
I like how this poems sparks thought.
