onemmanuel: Laziness is a virtue. Some type at least. It makes you want to put in little effort to achieve greater reward. Speak of efficiency. Gone are the days when we were taught that raw hardwork was the secret to success... Right now smartwork helped by laziness is what makes you thrive. Hardwork tasks me to perform a million (e.g. computational) task a million times, while laziness makes me design a way to perform a single effort and achieve the accomplishment of a million task. Laziness is beautiful while ignorance is a plague. Ignorance is actually just another form of laziness, the dangerous kind of laziness. The type that prevents you from opening your mind and learning new things. 1 Like |

Some say that ignorance is a disease (I'm not quite sure what that means yet). Medically however, every disease must have a causative agent. Same thing applies in context of ignorance being a ''disease'' -- ignorance being one of those agents. Laziness is a huge source of ignorance. Truly, a person who isn't lazy can also be ignorant, but this is essentially due to time factor in relation to the right source of knowledge which of course, is quite normal. Some say that a lazy person can be knowledgeable; Well, except for a few basic knowledge which everyone should have in his field, and other important aspects of life, I'd say this is not completely true. It's like telling someone to acquire knowledge without passing through the necessary stages. Thus, hard work (mentally and physically) which is the opposite of laziness is very essential in breaking the walls of ignorance. As the saying goes: you can lead a horse to the river, but you can't force it to drink water. In this case, it means that you can give a person a food for thought, but you can't force him to think or act on it. So IMO, I'd say that there's essentially no difference between ignorance and laziness. But from a broad perspective, laziness is worse since it ultimately leads to ignorance. There're valid excuses for ignorance, but there surely isn't for laziness. |

bettercreature:I don't know what you understand by laziness. How can someone come up with an invention without going through mental stress. intelligence you say, is a work of brain and I hope that you'll agree with me that it's not a work of lazy brain. |

LaEvilIMiss:' A Yahoo boy can be termed lazy' that is a generalization, everyone knows that a Yahoo boy is hustler. Everybody is ignorant of one area of knowledge or another. I can speak English-language and Yoruba but learning Arabic language from my student, I am also ignorant but not lazy. |

onemmanuel:I believe that laziness breeds ignorant. |

Adeyemi0: Let me clarify further... the quality of being ignorant is not that you are unaware of knowledge/information.. it is the deliberate quality of being close-minded in the presence of available knowledge and information.. Many Nigerians are ignorant even when enough information exists to change their perspectives significantly. IGNORANCE IS A DISEASE of Knowing the Truth but choosing to ignore it for reasons best known to ignorant. to summarize it.. which one would your rather be comfortable around.. Ignorant or Lazy folks 1 Like 1 Share |

La[quote author=La This is how Oxford Advance Learner Dictionary define it.."Lacking knowledge or awareness in general" I don't know how you come about such assertion. perhaps you're also ignorant of the phenomenon of discourse. |

Adeyemi0: You can be damn anal aren't you.. but f'course you are aware there is such a phenomenon adjudged to be WILLFUL IGNORANCE.. at least I made myself sufficiently clear on that. IF you are going to look at things in either black or white, then I am afraid you have foreclosed on anything outside your bubble of knowledge and that is a sad travesty |
