Open-minded

Possessing the ability to objectively judge people or situations based on the cold, hard facts, without recourse to personal prejudice, preference, or subjective predispositions.

gullible?

Plain dumb...
The car, job, house wife/husband are not the reward, God is.

I'd say that an open minded person would do their homework regarding something and then make an informed decision, and a gullible person would just believe everything that someone tells them.

Open-minded: Willing to listen to the other side's argument or point


Gullible: Believing whatever is told to you without individual investigation.
Despite our communication technology, no invention is as effective as the sound of the human voice.

Gullible:  Being carried away with every wind and doctrine... you shouldn't be quick to agree with everything you hear that sounds good.

Open-Minded: What sjon said.

Open-Minded = "Tell me why you believe Muslims are right and Christians are wrong."

Gullible = "If you spell orange backwards, it rhymes with banana."

I agree with Jonathan.

Gullible people will just believe ANYTHING. You can tell 'em anything or sell 'em anything and they'll not only buy it, but try to tell someone else about it.

Gullible people often stand firm on the left until someone tells them to go right (not politically speaking).

We should always be open minded and never gullible.

When you're in love you don't want to fall asleep bc reality is finally better than your dreams.
