Be open minded and think criticially. There such thing as being too open minded for your own good. I am victim to that sometimes.


Being critical and openminded can go hand in hand. Openmindedness does not equal accepting things at face value and being critical does not equal rejecting things at face value. IMO, what genuine scepticism is all about is precisely combining an open mind with a critical mind or accepting nothing as either true or false until you can analyse the data.


Well put dude.


Yah, there has to be a balance. You can't be gullible and fall for anything that just sounds good, and you can't assume you have everything all figured. I try not to get too attached to ideologies or the satisfaction of being apart of any team for both those reasons.
