Meet my friend “it’s what you know for sure that it isn’t so (…)”

We are clueless of our ignorance, and of how much there is still to discover in all domains of science.

IMHO I think we are accelerating discovery and we do not know yet what to do with all the things we invent and discover.

Perhaps, but I do not believe we SHOULD discover that knowledge. So far, we have not had a great track record of developing wisdom along side that.

IMHO you are right and the knowledge is simply too powerful for us.
