Are you an open minded person or a closed/conservative person when it comes to ideas that are outside your comfort? I tend to be an open minded person about a lot of things but i like to keep a balance between being open and closed.
-
it depends on the situation and who or what it involves
-
I would say I'm more open minded than closed minded, but both!
-
i have to say both but it also depends on what the subject is and what the consequences will be ?
-
I would say it all depends on the situation
-
More open than closed but there are some things in life that I will always be closed minded on.
-
I try to be open minded about most things, at least, I think I do! I know when I was younger I used to feel I was right all the time and everybody else was wrong. However, as I've grown older I realize there are two sides to every story, there is always another perspective and it's always worth giving someone the benefit of the doubt at least once. I've found that less is more sometimes and something I spout off all the time is........ least said soonest mended!

There's an old saying "It's good to be open minded,but not so open to where your brain falls out!" :D
-
I try to be an open minded person.
-
Depending on the topic, both.
-
It depends on the situation and if it stands with what i believe in. :heart: :heart: :heart:
-
I consider myself to be pretty conservative but also open minded about a lot of things; not everything, but a lot of things.
-
Definitely open minded. All things are possible if only you believe. ;) :peace:
-
Can you be an open minded conservative? I feel I have a little of both. When you are of the older generation, it's easy to get stuck in the past. So much of society and technology changes in just a few years. My kids have taught me that I need to be open minded, and it makes life so much more enjoyable!
-
It all depends on the issue and the situation. There are all kinds of freaky things :o out there and I'm totally not open-minded when it comes to weird things.
-
It depends on the individual situation. However, on the whole, I am pretty open-minded/liberal.
-
I'm a fairly open minded and liberal person. I believe people should be able to "LIVE AND LET LIVE" as long as they live legally and don't hurt other people or animals.
:heart:
-
Depends on the situation an how in feeling I could be both
-
I like to think I'm more open-minded but of course, it depends on what situation is being debated.
-
Definitely more open minded than not, especially about things that are outside my comfort zone.
-
open minded try to see all points of view
-
Open minded in that I can really listen to someone else's opinion and try to see things from their perspective. I think everyone is entitled to make their own choices in life. Life is all about making choices, ever choice has certain risks & consequences. Our lives will be the result of the choices we make.
Close Minded when someone else trying to make my life choices for me.
-
I would say open minded. Nothing is how you think it is before the facts.
-
I dislike the that liberals are open-minded while conservatives are closed-minded. In fact some of the more open-minded people are conservative while some liberals are more closed-minded. I actually don't see the relationship between how open-minded a person is compared with their political stance.
I am a very logical person, and so I remain open-minded when it comes to facts (and I do a fair amount of fact-checking on both sides of the argument). However once I have made an opinion on something, it is usually made after a long, serious thought about everything I know about the topic and come up with the most logical conclusions that I can find. Thus once I've made a decision, I tend to be a little more closed-minded. However I am always open to new facts, and so when I have changed my mind, it is usually based on new information or a new argument presented to me that I hadn't thought of before.
-
that is what i think i am to
-
Yeah, I'm open minded...usually about things pertaining to science and spirituality.
-
Open minded about most things. I am sure I have my closed minded moments though.
-

-
some time I opend mind and same time I not
-
I am an open-minded person. We must listen and observe other people's points-of view and opinions. Do not forget we learn something new every day. In this way, we can move forward in our societies.
-
I'm open minded until it conflicts with my moral code.
-
:) Opened minded Conservative here. :)
-
I try to be as open-minded as I can, but certain beliefs and traditions make me close-minded sometimes. It all depends on the scenario.
-
How can you really tell ? Don't you always find or argue your way back to your initial immediate response?
-
I think it is good to strike a balance between the two. I try to listen actively and not judge others. Have a good day!

Hello! :) :D I'll have to say I'm very open minded. Life is full of colors with all this technology. Life is deffinately not black and white. Every situation is deffinately not going to be either right or wrong. There are so much to consider. Being open minded is also being open minded to the fact that you can be wrong.
-
I am a very open minded person. I agree; being open minded is also being open minded to the fact that you could be wrong.

It has nothing to do with my "comfort zone". I know what I believe and nothing is going to change that. Doesn't mean I am closed minded. It means I stand firm on my beliefs and cannot be swayed by the changing society we live in.
-
I would think that I am pretty open minded about most topics and things that are out there.
-
If you follow what the Bible says, the world will say you are closed minded....but when you stand before the Lord, it won't really matter if the world called you closed minded when you only followed what He said...

I have a natural tendency to reject new experiences so I consciously fight it and try to accept all invitations that come my way to go to new places or try new things, particularly new foods. I had never had Indian food until about a week ago when my daughter introduced me to Indian takeout. I enjoyed it very much.
