One might say the skills that constitute objectivity are often the very ones needed to recognize subjectivity, and I wonder how many of us have them. - What dhw is really saying is that keeping an open mind vs. closed takes introspective work, and I think most folks will not work at keeping the mind open. Sitting with a final decision is much easier than continuing to read all sides of the issue and continuing to mull things over. Being comfortable with how you think an issue should be considered is fine, but the true solution might pass you by unless you keep researching. Think of Antony Flew.
