RE: The Difference Between Ignorance and Nescience

in #philosophy7 years ago (edited)

If we call someone "ignorant" we are judging that they are willfully or negligently avoiding some knowledge or truth.

If we call someone "nescient" we are judging that they are unable to learn the knowledge or truth.

"There is a difference between nescience of evil, and ignorance of evil to reject knowledge of evil that exists in our reality. Only a child can truly be nescient of evil in our reality."

A lot of adults are brainwashed. Are they ignorant or nescient? Maybe they are agnostic.
