Ahhhh, we're getting better here, me likes. The big question then becomes, what is progressing? No one says to keep curiosity to a minimum, but they do say, often idirectly of course, that true understanding can become a rationalization for evil. For example, there was a certain baby born premature, sickly, very likely to die with a mother who had a history of unsuccessful pregnancies. Our ethics say a doctor saving such baby is a good thing. A true understanding of all events associated with it, which is impossible to have at the time, might say otherwise. Pragmatically speaking though it could be the best thing to just let the baby die. If we did that, let the baby die, people would certainly say its an entirely horrible thing. However a true understanding might rationalize away the evilness. Knowing that said baby would later grow up to write a.book detailing "his struggle" and eventually instigating a system of facism that ended up killing scores of millions of europeans and defaming germany for generations to come. I know the hitler example is played out, but it brings a point to my statement about the assumption of true understanding being a rationalization for evil. If you desire, apply the previous patern to stem cell research and christians.
I suppose after all that ots hard to find the tangibility of that...damn lemon haze
Point being, the church does advize away from attempting a true understanding of things from all angles as arationalization for evils. Think, have you ever read the satanic bible? Given it is the antithesis of the Bible I would say it is worth understanding so as to in the least know how to counter argue it. However, you would be advised by the church to not do it, not not seek undestanding from all sides.
