Ignorance-based view

Why not sponsor a child for Christmas in 2008?
An ignorance-based view is the philosophical idea or belief that one's self or group can have no real knowledge of the nature of existence, in general, or specifically about a particular issue. And that nothing can or should be done, because one's intelligence does not come close to touching upon the issue.

Some cultures and religions have expressed this belief-system, usually about their association with God, Death, Life, or just random items in their existence.
