Summary
If you've spent years examining your beliefs, changing your mind based on evidence, and carefully considering both sides of an issue, does refusing to be persuaded by the same old arguments make you closed-minded?In this video, I respond to a claim I've heard hundreds of times: that former believers who don't return to faith after hearing familiar religious arguments are somehow unwilling to consider new ideas. We'll explore why changing your mind once doesn't obligate you to keep changing it back whenever someone repeats arguments you've already evaluated.Along the way, I also give a shoutout to one of my favorite YouTube channels, NonStampCollector, whose hilarious animated videos combine sharp atheist humor with thoughtful commentary.Have you ever been told you're "closed-minded" simply because you're no longer convinced by arguments you've already examined? Let me know your thoughts in the comments.Original Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@UCDyWzuw_u0TBnRaoAcVg0jw #Atheism #ExChristian #ExMormon #Skepticism #Religion #CriticalThinking #NonStampCollector #Debate #Deconstruction #SecularHumanism #FormerBeliever #Freethought #RationalThinking #YouTubeAtheist #ReligiousDiscussionPlease consider making a donation by joining our Patreon https://www.patreon.com/MormonNewsRoundup Email: [email protected] Website: https://mormonnewsroundup.org/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mormonnewsroundup Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mormon_news_roundup/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100093511869924 X: https://twitter.com/NewsMormon New episodes LIVE every Sunday and Monday nights at 9:30PM ESTPlease like and subscribe and hit the notifications bell.
