Open-Minded

This question was inspired by the previous post.

As briefly as possible, what is your definition of being "open-minded" ?

Accept others : different religions, gays and lesbians, different ideologies etc..

Even if it contardicts what you believe, you are not asked to be like them!! After all no one is god and sinners may repent and go to heaven..

(If you find this in-appropriate, fine it is what i think) <-- not addressed to Jandeef :)

To me it means to go through life without judging others, and treat others as you want to be treated.

Quite accurate definitions.

But is there such a thing as absolute open-mindedness?
