1. n., Peeps who rigorously eschew all forms of mental stimulation, on the feeble premise that either God or evolution will teach us all that we need to know. They may vocally oppose education, and believe that writing is something that only writers do. They sometimes brag about having no sense of size, quantity, or direction.
The militantly ignorant rarely read books or even magazines or newspapers, admit that they don't enjoy the fine arts, have a poor sense of history, can't find Nevada or Pakistan on a globe, and avoid watching the news on TV. They don't own library cards or use technology, except as a joke or novelty, believing digital productivity and entertainment to be waning fads, and are easily recognized by holding materials upside down while reading, unless they contain pretty pictures. What informational channels they do expose themselves to through TV or movies are usually either drivel or very low-grade.
They are greatly relieved to be unaware of the existence of resources such as NPR or the Internet. They can't read, spell, or even speak very well, don't recognize or use many words, frequently substitute similarly sounding words for what they really mean, take violent offense at innocent comments, and otherwise misconstrue most statements containing words longer than three syllables.
Unfortunately, such people rarely study or try to improve themselves or their work, (if they actually do any), and can only poorly define their misconceptions, much less defend them. Should they attempt to describe a problem, they will most likely describe it as a thingy that acted funny. This may have seemed cute when they were small, but if such seemingly cute ignorance is excessively rewarded when people are small, they learn to adopt ignorance as a strategy for obtaining affection, and eventually their brains atrophy from disuse and they can't learn more mature strategies.

Someone who only has knowledge of their own religion (usually a form of Christianity) rather than the major ones: Islam, Jewism, Hinduism, Confucianism, Buddhism. Also: someone who has their eyes blinded to truth by religious ignorance (ie: dinosaurs could not have existed - they are not in the Bible)
Religious ignorance usually is concentrated in churches - how ironic.

Starting with any article on Wikipedia, the number of clicks that are required for you to find a sentence that you recognize/understand is your degree of ignorance.
I looked up trace theory the other day, but in order to understand that, I had to click through to free monoid, and from their to the entry on monoid, and from there to algebraic structure, which understand. So, I don't understand trace theory by 3 degrees of ignorance.

Lacking knowledge/being rude doesn't make you happy, #1: Lacking knowledge will make you look stupid (depends on the IQ level). Nobody likes it when people are stupid.
#2: Being rude will make everyone hate you. Nobody like it when people are rude.
Future: Then you will be sad for the rest of your life.
idiot: ignorance is bliss.
person with a functioning brain: oh really? No, ignorance is NOT bliss, fucktard!
