There is a reasonable distinction between keeping an open mind and accepting just anything.  

Wouldn't you agree?

I will go ahead and repeat what I said earlier because I don't think you have read this one yet.  There are basic facts of life we all know to be true such as that an orange is a juicy fruit or that we will all grow old one day and our physical bodies will die.  There is no debate about these things.  But then there are things that have a lot of debate about them such as the paranormal or the idea that vaccines are harmful or that they cause autism.  These are the things I have to remain undecided on.  I don't think there are any shortcut methods to arrive at the truth in these scenarios because, as I said earlier, these shortcut methods of reasoning and logic are very close minded and only serve to limit people to their particular views as opposed to arriving at a conclusion the right way through full research into these things.
