New Study: atheists are less open-minded than theists

[*Deidre*]

There seems to be this need from both "sides" at times to put the other down as if this will somehow bring people to "their" side. Honestly, there's open minded and closed minded people who are atheists and theists, so I wonder about the validity of these "studies." How about Einstein etc...he seemed so open minded that many of his peers thought he was crazy for his theories. (although, he didn't believe in the idea of a personal god, not sure if he considered himself agnostic or an atheist) I would say that I've met many more close minded religious types than atheists, in general. Many religious people only view life according to their "holy book" and can't see any new thoughts or ideas past that.
