People need more than knowledge. They need wisdom. And by that I mean an understanding of what life is all about. This is the role that the Bible used to play in the lives of people. But when the Bible became disenfranchised, people find other things to fill that gap in their lives. And the new myths are most often teaching lessons that are pernicious. Thus you find in the Bible the fact that sufferings has a reason--sufferings are an unavoidable part of the human condition. We all suffer and cause others to suffer. In the Bible, the reason is simple: What goes around, comes around. But when people lack that wisdom, they find other reasons for their plights and dilemmas. For women, that is men. For the "woke" it is being born in the wrong body. The list goes on.
