open minded.....able to assess both sides of any discussion and make an unbias decision.

sort of like the senators and congress in washington....LOL

without the lobbyists., money brokers, and special interests groups... democracy like it was 100 yrs ago.

...and made even more ironic because this is the same poster who types LIBS and LEFTISTS in all caps (shouting), while being seemingly blissfully unaware of the fact that Fascism is a Far Right political doctrine.

Google up 'Godwin's Law'. This is a prime example of reductio ad Hitlerum, made famous by netkooks on the Usenet of yesteryear.

Open-minded = Seeing things from all points of view, without letting it affect your judgement of others. You accept people for who they are, rather than what they are.

Closed-minded = Only accepting people or things as long as they conform to your belief of how things should be. Not caring if someone is unhappy with their life as long as they live it the way you think they should.

I am open-minded, I take people as they are and don't care about race, age, sexual orientation, etc etc.

I remember now! I got distracted and I have problems with short term memory lose. slaphead embarassed
I don't understand the without convictions...easily swayed part. I'm about as far from easily swayed as you can get. And, I do have convictions. I think a lot of other people have shown that here, too, including you. I think your somewhat right about the different and leaning part. By definition though, narrower thinking is considered closed and broader thinking is considered open. But, I guess when it comes down to it, it depends on the definer. flowerforyou :thumbsup:

Politically speaking, or otherwise if you like, what does open-minded mean to you?

glasses



it imo means

you have an opinion on a subject

but you ask question to hear others opinions and gain facts
they have to support that opinion

and upon learning more about the subject using the new knowledge to modify your opinion

There is no such thing. Even LIBS have their intolerances to deal with...their Christian hatreds for one.


It goes to the question tho...

How far is too far? When is enough, enough?


just because someone is a liberal doesn't mean that they hate christians... I think your kind of closed minded...IMO.
