    Why would you have to be religious to be open minded?

    Well, not really. But you may be confused on where you stand.
    You don't have a judgemental bone in your body, and you're very accepting.
    You enjoy the best of every life philosophy, even if you sometimes contradict yourself.

    When I saw the poll I was a bit disappointed that I couldn't tick any of them. I have lived in predominantly white and christian areas and socialised and worked in predominantly white christian areas. BUT I have been friends with all sorts of people but couldn't tick any of them - which is why I am glad this "test" was around...

    You Are 48% Open Minded

    You aren't exactly open minded, but you have been known to occasionally change your mind.

    You're tolerant enough to get along with others who are very different...

    But you may be quietly judgmental of things or people you think are wrong.
    You take your own values pretty seriously, and it would take a lot to change them.

    Hmmm...sounds pretty accurate to me :D

    i ticked all except the bit about the foreign country, cuz i've never been to a foreign country.

    I get very confused by this kind of question, because I never know what they mean by 'ethnic origin' (and in my experience, the person asking the question rarely understand what they mean by it either! :D )

    I could probably tick the last one. I've never had a 'roommate' - but maybe a wife would count? :confused: :D

    PS: I got 40% on the 'open minded' poll. All the people who said they got 90%+ must have cheated. Tut tut! ;)

    i'm fine with pretty much everything except the drugs and the lover cheating on me.

    irunno. when you grow up in a country as an ethnic minority you can go one of three ways: either learn to be completely nonjudgemental, go completely racist and crazy, or be outwardly accepting, but go crazy inside.

    i choose to not go crazy. :D

    First of all, since when are war and abortion "ethnical" issues?

    Second of all, why does thinking everyone is bisexual make you open minded?

    the poll is does not represt being accepting and open. :(

    I prefer reason and scientific inquiry over religion. I am a religionist! :cool:

    I have had gay roommates while I am straight. Never got hit on or molested although I have seen thing that make most straight men's stomach's twist. :confused:

    black people have called me the "n" word. :cool:

    How is being a member of a group in which youre a minority a measure of your open mindedness?


    Seems pretty shallow...like when people say "Im not homophobic, I have lots of gay friends!"


    ..not to mention most of my answers are 'no' because im not part of any religious organisation.

    It isn't. Members of "victim" groups can be more racist against the majority than the majority is against them.


    This is a shallow thought. If you have to prove your not homophobic, you will end up proving you are at least ignorant.

    I don't attend services in my own religion. I am Jewish so I guess I am anti semetic?
