Absurdly on point to current times (2024). We need to continuously "go through the pain" or challenging our beliefs. When doing that through conversations with people and doing it honestly we have the possibility to hear arguments that will challenge our beliefs or "truths". If we allow this to happen we either reinforce what we believe to be true, we add nuance to our beliefs or we understand when we are wrong and need to correct. It may be a painful experience but it is necessary to have progress especially regarding the realities of our society.
Have a nice day.

What's amazing is most Catholics even if they are a "dogmatic" religion mostly have open minds.

Is a good informative video, but I prefer to disagree refering to the "dogmatism being the norm" as abandoning all dogmas is a good way to learn new concepts, as socrates said "the only thing I know is that I know nothing"

Why does prejudice against black exists and how is this prejudice related to Dogmatism?
For example, girls shun all advances from boys even if they are not really advances. Especially beautiful girls versus below-average boys.
Can we call this a dogma? You started very objectively, but then you are veering into politics. Prejudice, whether antifeminist, anti-black, or anti-homosexual, does not arise from dogma or dogmatism. But a general averseness of human nature towards anyone that is 'perceived' as a botheration and not a pleasure. (Like aboriginals).
Can anti-feminism be justified? When feminism stopped working towards alleviating womens oppression, but instead chose to oppress men as retribution, then anti-feminism becomes a natural reaction of humans. If that is not true then why are politicians enacting homophobia laws? why do you need laws?


"the natural human reaction is to resist new information" Who said that? The natural reaction to new information is to look through one's knowledge and subjective experiences.
I know blacks are not to be afraid of, but I also have a couple of experiences with some black guys, di I have the same ratio of experience with others? (like Latinos, Asians) No, but I do have a pattern of experience with them. So next time Im in a position with black guy, my reaction is from my knowledge and my subjective experience.
