Knowledge is power.
Is that accurate?
Is it rather a spectrum?
What is our value?
How must we examine this?
How can we know?
Should we know?
Will we know?
Are these questions meta?
Why do we ask questions?
Why was this question asked?
What is the human condition?
Is it to search for answers we can’t ever understand?
If we are to believe in the story of our creation –
Was this the final punishment bestowed upon us?
To ask questions?
To be inquisitive?
Is what is the root of all good also the root of all evil?
Knowledge is power.
No, it’s ignorance.
