Some things to consider...
How does society as a whole tend towards biased thinking or not?
How do you recognise bias in you own life? How does one ride themselves of bias? Is it an exercise of will or simply something you learn (free will vs determinism)?
Is bias a myth? If it is, what is our (your) role in coming to grips with being wrong (or at least incorrect) or not? Can one justify never being wrong from a theoretical standpoint?
What would be required to believe (heh) that one does not have any biases?
Is it easier for you to separate seeing bias in others or yourself more?
How does our perception tie into our biases?
Are our tools to measure the universe fallible due to bias? Why or why not?
Everyone has bias. Fortunately we have a tool especially designed to remove it. Its called the scientific method.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
