According to the dictionary Narrow Mindedness means "Not willing to listen or tolerate other peoples view, prejudiced" I think by that very definition one can construe that as being wrong

Thank you, Mrs. Webster.


Narrow mindedness "Not willing to listen or tolerate other people view, prejudiced"


Prejudice(d) -"Prejudice is prejudgment, or forming an opinion before becoming aware of the relevant facts of a case. The word is often used to refer to preconceived, usually unfavorable, judgments toward people or a person because of gender, political opinion, social class, age, disability, religion, sexuality, race/ethnicity, language, nationality, or other personal characteristics."



This is probably why I asked her if she believed there wasn't any evolutionary or Biblical bases (facts) for racism. And according to her answer of which one she subscribes to, if any, would determine my reply to her.

Yes, my last example was somewhat loose on the direct definition, but most people don't use it verbatim in it's meaning. With you around to keep me on my toe's, I'll make sure I'm more careful in the future.


But her answer tells me she is not stupid, and is not wrong in her answer. No more than you can say people who subscribe to evolutionary racism are wrong (It's basis is taught in school , you know). Biblically speaking, since that was her answer, I'm still deciding if I want to engage her now or wait till I've slept and be mentally prepared. Hopefully this reply isn't too scattered brained. I've been up all night. (Sorry Purplelady1040, I don't mean to make you wait for a reply)

But, Joanna, good try.
