Yes I would, by what I presume to be your definition of the word "ignorance". Again, I don't see truth as a legitimate human pursuit. Even from the scientific perspective I formerly embraced, we have no claim to truth; we can make vague approximations based on the immeasurably minute stimuli that enter our brains, but so much isn't and indeed can't be known.

Why not skip the uncertainty and embrace what one genuinely wants to believe, what will better the human condition -- life on Planet earth as a whole even, what just might in fact lead to sincere bliss?
