Put a little differently

Pedants are men who would appear to be learned, without the necessary ingredient of knowledge.

With loads of learned lumber in his head.

So are we now posting in praise of ignorance?  Does knowledge and learning fighten us?  I enjoy the company of those more knowledgeable and learned than me.  I enjoy learning new things. Don't be afraid Patricia, abbs.  Enjoy!

This thread started with:-

As we seem to have strayed so far, I will back out now.

Probably one post earlier would have been better.  There's not a lot of point in posting to say you're not going to post.  If you simply don't post, we'll probably work out for ourselves that you've backed out of posting.

abbbb1 "No, I was posting about knowledge!!"

You were posting about sabiduria and saber.  So is that knowledge, knowing, learning or even wisdom?  Patricia is trying to make a distinction between knowledge (good) and learning (bad) as if knowledge can be acquired without learning either from our own experience of from the experiences of others.  It is a spurious distinction.
