Knowledge; Half-knowledge!

"Knowledge widens our horizon!" exclaimed the angel.

"But, Knowledge limits our perspective," contradicted the devil.

"How come? The knowledge and awareness of a thing helps us understand it better, dispels myths and informs us with facts."

"On the contrary, knowledge and awareness of a thing limits our perspective, ties us with preconceived notion and tempts us to jump to conclusions."

"Look, let us assume you have good knowledge of music. Then you will be better equipped to understand its intricacies and appreciate its subtleties."

"Keeping up with the same assumption, you will be eager to classify every form of music into the categories your knowledge dictates; you will most likely miss out the music in the whisper of winds, the cry of children and the rustle of leaves, because the standardised knowledge of music denies you the freedom to categorise these melodies!"

"You complain of ignorance with the growth of knowledge?"

"No, I complain the loss of innocence and the limit to viewpoints."

"Why do you think it is so?"

"Because most of the knowledge we boast of, is half knowledge."

"And half knowledge is dangerous."
