"Block minded"

[FTON]

how do you deal with block minded people? do you think that they will understand your point?
let's define "Block minded" i have thought of an opposing word of "open minded"
I don't have any problem with them, but the thing is, they never get your point, they think is what you see is the absolute truth, i can't possibly agree with that, you?

Let them be. Everybody is basically closed-minded on certain issues.

I agree. Each person has his or her own opinions that they feel are right. There is no sense even trying to persuade these type of people. I just ignore them.

Its hard to deal with block heads, close minded people. But each person is entitled to feel however they want to feel about things, so who I am to try to make them think differently? Not worth my time.

What's to say you aren't the one who is wrong and they are right? It's not exactly popular to think of yourself as being in the wrong as most would rather believe they are right and everyone else is wrong no matter how obvious it might appear to not be the case. All you can do is state your case, back it up with facts and let them make with it as they wish. Perhaps they may see things differently from it or perhaps you will think of it differently based on their responses or you could all stay the same. That's all you can really do.

You just have to understand that there's fundamental concepts/beliefs that these certain "block-minded" guys follow and once you know what it is it will be easier to persuade them and know what makes them tick. Some people are going to be harder to persuade than others though
