I "Am Very Open-minded"

It serves me to earnestly try to be open-minded. There is no right or wrong just several shades of grey, because understanding is the key.

If I understand why, it makes sense and gives me an additional way of looking at life. That doesn't mean I have to agree, but it really isn't about that at all. Sometimes understanding where a behavior comes from allows you to be okay.

I disagree. There are actions that are demonstrably wrong, like brainwashing someone into a belief system before they have the ability to fully understand what it is they're agreeing to believe in.

@mljenkins what actions were taken to put yourself into a position to allow someone else to have that much power over you

Are you kidding? Let's hope so, but if not:

1. A child is born
2. Its parents raise it to believe in a deity and certain mythos

That damn child, giving its parents power like that. Why didn't it just leave?

@daisymay Has I pointed out, there are exceptions to everything so your comment is not applicable here...

@mljenkins I responded to your opinion with my own, and then you challenged my opinion.

Then you went on to change from:
[quote]There is no right or wrong just several shades of grey[/quote]

to:
[quote]Of course I know there are exceptions to everything[/quote]

If you knew that, why ask me to explain?

As long as nobody who can’t reasonably be expected to protect their own interests gets hurt (by my definition) - I don’t care what others do.

My open-mindedness stops when behaviors inflict damage on innocents.

Agreed.
