Ignorance of these things is probably the 2nd worse place to be in regards to your safety.

Understanding that you are your own gatekeeper, but being aware that other things are going on around you in the world that you cant see with your eyes most of the time, knowing those things pose a real danger but understanding that you control access to yourself keeps you safe.

Being aware and engaging these things in attempt to gain an advantage or knowledge is the most dangerous way to approach it. Everything has a price and you don't really know what these things are,, they are not God that is for sure. They give you nothing for free..

Being totally unaware is nearly as bad as participating with them for a purpose, it generally leaves your door open without you having awareness that the door needs to be guarded and maintained, especially if you have no God or religion in your life, earth worship is the worship of another being and does not count as God...
