To perhaps get the thred back on track;
Earthworms seems pretty ignorant. I wouldn't trade places with them any day of the week.
Perhaps intelligence does allow you to see some of the darker things in life; most notably its inevitable end. But intelligence allows us to appreciate the things that make life actually worth living. It allows us to appreciate the beauty of nature and of art and participate in the many other joys of life.
Perhaps we have to face up to the 'unbearable' realization that we insignificant and powerless in this unimiaginably vast universe; but oh what a tiny price to pay to get a life that is worth living.
Ignorance isn't bliss; ingnorance is apathy.
