IGNORANCE

How loud must a lie be before it becomes the truth?

I can only think of one scenario where this question makes any sense: "I am the loudest."

How insistent must the ignorant be in their position for their insistence alone to turn ignorance to knowledge?

These points feel reductive, insulting even, yet this is exactly what I see in modern society. Does such a reduction somehow change the issue, or is one's sense of the insecurity of their own position obscured in another way? Perhaps it is this loudness alone that draws undue attention, but it does not seem so. 

What if shouting one's ignorance vehemently could lead to victory in a scenario (truly I have seen this work in many {inconsequential} situations)? Would not the only result be becoming victorious in that scenario and finding out just how fundamentally wrong you truly were, and still are? On the road we are on, it seems like we will find out. With any grace this revelation will come sooner, rather than later, because the road to the infinite is far too long when entered in this way.

I imagine that a common response to those seeing themselves in this mirror will be "Oh, so you think your opinion is right and not mine?" The image coming to mind is of a bear seeing itself in a mirror for the first time, and violently ripping it down. The brain is quite good at protecting its own ignorance by replacing consideration, and even perception, of such challenging concepts with defensive and reactive emotions. My response would be "You tell me." If you can examine my points and reply with a coherent argument to the contrary, one that you could see yourself honestly considering if roles were reversed, then your brain has not blinded you to protect your position. If not, consider what you have lost, for the bear was born with animal intelligence.
