Is there no escape?

I want an idiot-free world. No more idiots. But the more I think about it, that means a world without people. Because we are all idiots. We were born idiots. And we die idiots. It’s a continual turnover. An ever-lasting hell, so to speak.  All of us. We are condemned to live in hell. For our entire natural lives.  There’s only one unresolved question. What about the afterlife?  Is that idiotdom, too? Oh, my gawd! Is there no escape? –Jim Broede
