I don't see where you're getting that I'm ruling out the option of finding the dreaded truth... All I'm saying is that I'm incredibly doubtful that the truth is going to change a great deal...

We exist to stop bad things and help people. Ascians seemingly exist to create bad things and kill people. This cosmic feud between Hydaelyn and Zodiark is, to me, inconsequential. Essentially the same as the Bevelle/Zanarkand War, the finer details of it do not matter, it is simply something to set the stage and explain the current conflict. The one where the shadowy organization that facilitates the existence of a giant hate-whale ruins peoples lives and actively undermines the truth...

The Ascians and their Primal schemes are essentially an amalgamation of Sin, Yunalesca, and the Teachings of Yevon.

And why do you think that is, exactly? We're not willfully ignorant. We're ignorant because a certain group routinely facilitates mass destruction that leaves us ignorant...
