> ancient ideal > truth-seeking Surely you realize how much of an oxymoron that is. Follow an unrealistic and impractical standard, just as your forefathers have. Why?

Perhaps if your knowledge seeking gives you positive neurochemical feedback, more power to you, but to denigrate all of society for not conforming to your ideals is a very ugly personality trait.
