This saying has a different meaning for everyone that reads it. You make it relate to ideas that make up the majority of your thinking. So if you answer no then my idea is you are in the ignorant group and if your answer is yes then welcome to a miserable existence. If ignorance is bliss and willful ignorance is unheard of then what are intellectuals to do.

i agree, being ignorance is sometimes so dangerous, so it is better to know more of something before.

Ignorance is not bliss. Truth won’t kill you. Truth may be bitter, but truth alone sets you free. Only once your are free can you enjoy real bliss.

I think you misunderstood the saying. I think it focuses on the ‘unaware’ part. And the blissful part isn’t the observation of the fact you were ignorant, it’s that you are blissful while you are ignorant of the fact that you have cancer. If you did have cancer, you would not be in a state of bliss, but in one of panic and anxiety.

In other words: If you are unaware of something terrible, you won’t feel terrible.

I think it means, that when you don’t know something, you’re naive, and you are like, la la la, la la la, I’m in happy dream land, la la la…well, that’s my idea at least.

ignorance is bliss for the reason why our government has not legalized marijuana, I mean is would make sense, for the fact that they could tax it, and yes it would put less focus on the war on drugs and put more focus on more serious crimes… there is more below on the link I provided from High Times..
