Alexander Pope wrote a long poem which he called Dunciad. He had no patience with the half learned and the ill-learned. He brand them all dunces and poe enjoyrs and made them the theme of his Dunciad. Like Iliad, it was non an epic barely a satire wherein he state A teentsy learning is a dangerous thing Drink deep or taste not the Pierian Spring. The problem with much(prenominal) people, said Pope, was not that they did not know much but that they thought they knew everything. Therefore he advised them to have the best their subjects thoroughly or abjure them once for all.To look at that one knows everything is like living in a fools paradise. It is a comforting thought as distant as it goes, if one can stop with it. more thanover curiously enough one thought leads to another(prenominal) and that sets things moving. Satisfaction leads to arrogance and that opens the Pandoras Box. Arrogance knows no fear, no second thoughts. Discrimination vanishes and with a foolish esthesi s of confidence the arrogant will venture to do anything. Surely, fools tread where angels fear. We know man polishs by pride and therefore the moment he becomes egotistical headed, his fall receives.But he will not fall alone. He will cause a accident and many an exculpatory man will go down with him. Like a drowning man he drags with him anyone he can lay hands upon. When you approximate that you are Mr. Know all, you will probably begin to act like a No all. more an innocent man will believe what you say. If they manifestly wonder like the rustics who stared at the village pedagogue and wondered how a small head could carry so much, no mischief is done. But if they also believe what you say, they are at once on the incorrect side of the fence.Some of the religious fanatics are guilty of such a sin. They do not know what actually a religion is for. They cannot realize that it is for mans good to lick comfort in moments of sorrow and distress, to guide him in times o f illusion and indecision and to lead him disclose from darkness and ignorance. They harangue about the superiority of their god, excoriate the people of other faiths call them infidels and declare beatified wars in the name of God and religion. The ignorant raft who believe them take to arms and cut the throats of innocent people. eligion which is expected to bring comfort and sunshine in the lives of people will spread distress and darkness. mint who cannot understand that the essence of religion is understanding, tolerance, compassion and avail will think that they are pundits and prophets. Pope rightly advises such false prophets to drink deep or else taste not the Pierian Spring. People who believe in racial superiority are no better. They talk of soft blood, azure eyes, blonde hair and fair discase and look down upon others.They too suffer from the limitations of little knowledge. They do not realize that we all choke to one race the race of man, whether the colour of the struggle is white or yellow, brown or swarthy and that these variations are the ways of nature to add beaut and variety to its creation. Every artist knows that he demand to vary his colours, combine and recombine them, to produce the ask effect and make his creations look more and more beautiful. But these half learned people who do not know this much, practice racial variation and spell disaster.
