Sheesh, you sling the paintbrush around! You’ve touched on a number of points. First of all, you ask better and easier like those would both go with a certain behavior. Well, often they don’t. Better is often harder, while easier leads to immediate short term solutions with bad consequences further on. As to living credulously, I assume you mean believing what you hear. Well that is overly simple - you can’t just believe everything or believe nothing - you have to evaluate each thing on its merit. If you believe everything, you will be fooled a lot. If you believe nothing, you will insult a lot of honest people and miss out on things like knowledge and friendships.
Sheesh I need a nap after sorting through THIS question. *smiles*

Ignorance is bliss. Or so they say. Being malicious stems from ignorance. Great question.

You ask a black and white question, but life is not a black and white answer. There are so many levels of grays there. Trust in what you know and believe, doubt that which you do not know or believe. But always try to keep an open mind about every situation. Remember your Hamlet…there are more wondrous things in heaven and earth, dear Horatio, than are dreampt of in your philosophy. Life is an adventure of discovery, not a chore or a puzzle to figure out.
