Ignorance is bliss, then lol

However, their world is a world that is narrated to them by others - and their prejudicies.
A blind person can only question life from the information that is provided to them by interpretation - they cannot question what they are seeing, as they cannot see to pass judgement on such.
ie, their 'interpretator' might say that the person stood in front of them is fat, but how can a blind person define 'fat'?
They can only define 'fat' from a mental image that they have formed within their mind. An image made from either touch, smell, or sound - or indeed, an interpretation from written media in the form of braile.
Who's to say that the author of such written matter, isn't predisposed to over-zealousness when describing 'fat'?


The truth is what ever you believe it to be.
