Something got me thinking today and I realized just how dogmatic I am. I rarely accept anyone else's point of view unless they can really convince me which is rare. I'd say this is a vice rather then an admirable quality.

What about you?

Are you easily open to new ideas or are you a dogmatist like myself?

I'll listen to their point of view, but I rarely change my opinions

It's all in the way you word your argument to me. If it's logical and well structured, you may have just changed my opinion.

But that doesn't happen often, so I don't know which to pick

I also tend to be extremely harsh to people that piss me off. They may be right but if I don't like them and they try to argue with me hellsgate opens.

Hahaha I guess I'd be a good lawyer.

I'm rather dogmatic in many things, but I can be swayed. So I can't really say what I should vote. Issues like Israel/Palestine, gun control and the death penalty I have strong opinions in, but if you're a good speaker, you can sway me.

I imagine we get these threads every time someone adds a new word to their vocabulary.

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

Most people are stubborn bastards, including me. It depends on who's talking to me to persuade me about whatever.

There's generally just five people who can change my views on anything, my parents and my three best friends.

I imagine we're talking religion here, then.

Otherwise stubborn or obstinate > dogmatic

I'm open to new beliefs, but they better come with some convincing logic or I stick to my current view.
