Usually, when people tell you to close your mind, they are telling you to close your mind to everything that disagrees with THEM.

Case in point, the Democrats have done a good job of brainwashing their minions to close their minds to any and all arguments against Critical Race Theory, DEI, and Marxism.

“Usually, when people tell you to close your mind, they are telling you to close your mind to everything that disagrees with THEM.”

Absolutely right. Needs repeating.

From the article:

“What if we all just opened our minds to the fact that there’s this thing much bigger than us right now, and what could we learn from it?”

Exactly right. The only thing holding us back from substantial discovery are mental firewalls of ignorance and refusal to be objective. We don’t have to believe something, but it will not harm anything or anyone to at least objectively consider the pro and con postulates for possibilities. A theory cannot truly be ruled out if both sides are not fully explored and considered.

What if man could fly someday? If this “impossibility” by known physics at the time had never been explored and fully considered objectively we would still not be flying.
