What's worse?

I personally don't know and I don't care.

Apathy is a gateway drug, eventually leading to crystal "meh".  :devil

does Ignorance lead to apathy? think about it... is it possible to not care about anyone for so long that you could still have a soft spot in your soul?

I think you've got it flipped, I think apathy is essential to ignorance. You can care about something you know nothing about, and decide to learn about it. If you don't care about something, you can stay ignorant forever.

you may just be right... thinking on it, i do believe i have it flipped. although, there must be some ignorance for apathy to thrive, ignorance isnt in its full until apathy has taken control however.

I say apathy is worse.

You can educate someone but you can't make them care.
If I had a gun with 3 bullets and I was locked in a room with Bin Laden, Hitler, Saddam and Zipp...  I would shoot Zipp 3 times.

You obviously don't know some of the people I know Rob. Even with a clue bat some of them wouldn't get it.

Johnson and Johnson started working on a drug to cure apathy but market research showed that nobody seemed to care
