If we ever know everything there is to know what would we all do then?

Answer 1

Knowing everything there is to know is not the same as knowing what to do with that knowledge once you know it. The major lesson taught from the fall from paradise mythology in the Old Testament is that Adam and Eve were ill equipped to handle the knowledge of good and evil. While they were living in the Garden of Eden the arguably knew all there was needed to know. Particularly the warning God gave them to not eat from the Tree of Knowledge of good and evil. While Adam and Eve were happy frolicking in the garden, their thirst for knowledge was even greater so they chose to ignore God's warning and ate from from the tree. Because in the garden there was only good it was necessary for Adam and Eve to leave the garden and go out into the world so they could know good and evil. This has been the legacy those mythological people left for humanity. We are now in a world filled with good and evil and it is incumbent upon us to learn how to deal with that knowledge. To know what God knows does not mean that we know what to do with that knowledge or even that we can handle owning that knowledge. This is the game, to be more godlike we must come to terms with good and evil and learn how to deal with that knowledge. And another point of view: Undoubtedly there are more questions than answers. WA's own statistics bear this out. There are many instances of the same Q being asked in many, many different ways. All of which can be replied to differently I suppose, a comma here an exclamation mark there, the diversity is infinite and then some. All of this adds to the spice of sharing information & the diversity of opinion. By much the same token, and I think this is Socrates: The more we know the more we don't know. The wider our knowledge of a subject the more we realise that there is more & more to be discovered about what we learn. In that way I imagine knowledge is like the universe, ever expanding. And infinite.
