I think that this is one of the most interesting questions in the world. Everybody wants to have the opportunity of studying and achieving a high level of knowledge, however, Is too much knowledge a bad thing?
I think that there were some religious institutions throughout history that have tried to avoid the spread of knowledge, as my classmate has mentioned in her post. The reason of this attitude could be that ignorant people is more malleable when they have to believe some statements without think about its reliability. Therefore, we could say that Ignorance is a good weapon to manipulate people.
On the other hand, I believe that sometimes people is less happy when they have to much knowledge about a particular concern. In other words, ignorance avoid suffering. However, we must not forget that knowledge is also a special tool that leads us to incredible worlds. Knowledge makes us improve as persons and also gives us the power to be able to chose our destiny without being manipulated by anybody. This is the great advantage of Knowledge.
Therefore, I would like to say that knowledge is as good as progress is for the human being's existence.
