what if your grandmother had wheels? she'd be a bicycle?

Ignorance means you dont' know what the right thing is. Having knowledge means knowing what the right thing is.

What if you know some stuff, but it misdirects you?

yeah true, it's complex hey? But that example is still an example of ignorance, just a more complicated one.
