I would say ignorance is the worst. Because If we refuse to learn ... it brings us nowere on our road to grave.
And the World is so huge and full of suprises ... and we, being an ignorant creaters sitting in our kitchens and living rooms talking about shopping. conversing

selfishness and greed.
Ignorance by itself isn't so bad. People can always be educated, but when they're selfish, they tend to make life miserable for everyone else.

For me I think it boils down to arrogance...

The arrogant do not think they need to learn because they already know

The arrogant do not have compassion because they think others are worthless

The arrogant do not encourage others because they are not worth the arrogants persons time

the list just goes on and on for me... So blatant arrogance I think is the worst one I see as it leads to or supports so many negative things.

dunno

There are too many to name but all of the above mentioned are a good start. Unfortunately because they are all part of human nature they're not going any where.

The problem with ignorant people is ..they think that they know everything ..therefore they refuse any kind of edication. You can't force someone to learn if they don't want to Righ?conversing


and you are right selfishness ais the big couse to ruin any kind of relationships.wave

Can't say that I agree. Most people, including myself, are ignorant of one or the other thing. Nobody knows everything. Yes, there are those who are ignorant and don't want to learn, but the problem isn't the ignorance, rather than the fact that they're full of themselves thinking they know it all. That has to do with a lack of humility and an overinflated self-esteem/ego, imo.

A virtue by the very nature of it's meaning isn't bad: Ignorance is a flaw not a virtue.
