Wisdom is a form of information, data, and knowledge. Without it, they would just simply not be complete.

No. You are dealing strictly in Newtonian physics and you're argument would be sound if the universe was Newtonian but it is not. The two major issues here and the limitation imposed by relativity (the fact that information cannot propagate faster than light) and the uncertainty principle. The first means that it is impossible within our laws of physics to simultaneously know everything, because the information must cross the distances at a relatively slow rate. The second is a fundamental principle of quantum mechanics you can never know the position and spin of a sub atomic particle. This is NOT, I repeat NOT, a human limitation. This is a fundamental property of the system the more precise you know one the more you lose the other. There is an inherent degree of uncertainty build into our universe at it's fundamental scales therefore you cannot predict the future. EDIT: Yes if you had 100% knowledge then you could predict the future. In fact if you had 100% knowledge, wouldn't that INCLUDE knowledge of the future? My point is simply that 100% knowledge is not within the laws of physics. I don't mean not within human capability, I mean the laws of physics themselves do not allow it. If you want to postulate something that is not bound by the laws of physics, something "supernatural", then you're free to make up whatever you like which makes it meaningless.

well, information and data are not much use without some wisdom, but if you have knowledge, then you should also gain wisdom,,,,,,,,,, unless you mean knowledge in the limited sense of just facts,,,,,,,,,,,,
i personally think that it would be difficult to gain alot of information and data and any type knowledge, without gaining some wisdom along the way,,,,,,,, there has to be something in all that ,, somewhere , sometimes, that perks your brain up,,,,, and leads you to deeper learning,,,,

Information, data and knowledge are all potential. Potential for good or bad. If you add experience and proper direction to the equation, now you have wisdom.

All of these things can change at the drop of a hat in the first place, so even with wisdom I say this, all of this is nothing compared to the tears behind it.

I agree with "Real Friend."
Data is just data, until you have a way to colate or interpret it.
Widsom is what comes from evaluating and understanding the data.

nothing really, you'd be just like a library... too much info, but essentially dead... or probably even worst... more or less like C3PO, too much data, but essentially a robot, not a human being...
unfortunately, I seem to be one of that kind, hehehe

raw material, same as lumber, stone, water, etc.
What man does with it, is what makes something valuable or not. We are the source of all values.
