How do we as a society combat ignorance?

RE: How do we as a society combat ignorance?
What, is there a problem with people being ignorant?
First I've heard about it.

But seriously, teach critical thinking at schools, starting at the youngest age possible.

I don't know if it's just ignorance. I think the problem is that people don't know things, but also that they believe the wrong things to be true. And will argue forever about it.
If The Flintstones have taught us anything, it's that pelicans can be used to mix cement.

Valyza1 beat me to it.

I was just going to post about executing those who promote ignorance: creationists, conspiracy nut jobs, anti-science morons, etc.
