> you wouldnt be any more blissful if you were ignorant of the cause but consider, if you dont think marriage could be real, you wont be torn up about being divorced. if you dont think fatherhood is a thing, you wont be torn up about having your kids taken away. and if you have no sense of duty to your family, you will be lazy and ignore them, and try to sleep at other womens houses instead of staying at home getting yelled at into getting accused of marital rape in a restraining order. in reality, ignorance isnt just bliss but also safety. > i know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: i would thou wert cold or hot. 16so then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, i will spue thee out of my mouth. 17because thou sayest, i am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: 18i counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see. 19as many as i love, i rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. 20behold, i stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, i will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. 21to him that overcometh will i grant to sit with me in my throne, even as i also overcame, and am set down with my father in his throne. 22he that hath an ear, let him hear what the spirit saith unto the churches.
