i think if everyone lived forever, people would be just as stupid as they are now because ignorance is bliss, especially if you think you know everything

What about knowledge forgotten? If you experience something but don't recall it ever, do you really know it? Is knowledge really practice? The way we live? Since it's hard to believe that everyone could really ever (in any way) come to the same, infinite knowledge... how could we say there's anything really objective or true?

This is why I think life experience is not knowledge.
