Freethinkers
Consider the following quote and place your thoughts:
"Freethinkers are those who are willing to use their minds without prejudice and without fearing to understand things that clash with their customs, privileges, or beliefs. This state of mind is not common, but it is essential for right thinking; where it is absent, discussion is apt to become worse than useless."
-- Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoi - (1828-1910) Russian writer Source: On Life and Essays on Religion
I have to agree with the statement. I consider myself to be a free thinker. I strive to learn more and more about everything. Am I a expert at something Yes but I also continue to learn every day. I take what others say and think about it and learn what I can from that. I feel that those who do not want to learn more and more are dead in the water and can not keep a current topic of discussion worth talking about.
