To answer the inquiry of who do we blame, we blame no one, but rather we allow the momentum of our ideas seep into the public conciousness and shape the world, so is the way of intellectual influence. New thoughts influence further up in the academic chain and then they become validated, and it is many years before they fully set in, and when it comes to such things as new world views and philosophies taking hold, why you look at many decades. I am convinced that it is simply impatience when taken in perspective. Governments are social experiments waitng for a reset after some overload point and once the smoke clears, a new better society is build from the ruins. Eventually logic may be the religion of the people, but it can only be so through time and perhaps a bit of tyrrany, as any religion, and as any religion, ignorance of the people might be exploited, although the nature of the religion might be contradicted in doing so, but such is true of all religions.

I am not so sure your problem can be adressed as such.

You view the problem of human ignorance to be a problem that can't be solved, and perhaps shouldn't even be addressed? It'd be very disheartening if that were the case as that is what I ultimately strive for - that's what I was hoping to dedicate the rest of my life to. You're right, though, it's possible this problem is far beyond our comprehension. One solution may very well not be a solution at all, and may just bring pain to others, further increasing ignorance.

But I will try anyway.
