Are you 100% Open-Minded? (21)
I took an online test for fun and found out that I'm an Somewhat Open-Minded person.
That I have a limited tolerance for other's differences.That I also hold my own values pretty high and it would take a lot to change my mind.

Here's my thoughts on this interesting question.
No I am not that open minded. I am open minded enough to get along, but I make up my own mind and then it is pretty set. I will say that I am open minded enough to examine the evidence, and I believe I'm fair minded, but not always open minded. I seldom change opinions once formed, or habits at someone else's bidding.
I question EVERYTHING...."authority" is not a good enough reason for me to agree with something. Some people have occasionally misinterpreted that as insolence. It's not. I am from a culture where one speaks one's own mind. Question Everything

Yes, I think I am 100% open-minded.
For me open-minded means to not feel attacked or uncomfortable or alienated when someone is different from me in thinking, being, looks .. whatever, and to not judge others or follow any generalisations.
In my eyes it is often like that that people consider themselves as open-minded, but it is almost the opposite. Their mind or soul feel "tight" and not open for me because they have limits in how they see the world, so that they are not able to even imagine there is more than their world.

It seems to me there is a point along the continuum where open-mindedness becomes gullibility. Knowing exactly where that point is can be somewhat difficult depending on the circumstances.
Thanks for the excellent comments.

The anarchy increased in our world due to moral relativism...
Find someone who, in your opinion, believes, assumes, or considers certain things very strongly and very differently from you, and just have a basic honest conversation.
It will do you good to open your mind.

We keep open mind when we challenging our own assumptions. Our assumptions are our windows on the world.

Biased aren't we. We try to filter the world through established knowledge and we're prejudiced by what we think is right or wrong. A man's virtue is his prejudice(I believe it was Burke who said that).
No we're not open-minded. We must try to understand as much as possible but then we must discern what we will and will not accept. A person should be more understanding than accepting. More open-minded than open-hearted.

man and woman must at all times be cautious, for it might be a good thing to be open to nre ideas but be careful, there are people who are skillful at manipulation and will take advantage of an unwary soul. Be trusting and listen to ideas but be cautious.

I doubt there are few people in the world, if any, who are 100% open-minded.
We all have our own ideas on things, tainted by our upbringing, culture, life-experiences, etc.
I am open to hearing other viewpoints which conflict with my own, and if the argument is solid, I am willing to accept it, or agree to disagree.
