> I don't know a single religion that actually says we should pursue real ignorance The closest thing to this is Taoism, and it's the least religious of religion. It's the most encompassing of philosophies. There is the Tao. It's everywhere and in everything. You won't ever be able to understand, define, touch, taste it, but you and everything else is part of it. Now go do whatever. As Alan Watts said, Taoism is the purest of religions, all other religions are for people that don't get it so need to be taught verbosely and in details what is fundamentally unexplainable. I'm a bonafide atheist, and I believe the Tao Te Ching to be one of the greatest cultural works every created.
