Can people who embrace mythology (Christians, Buddhists, Muslims, etc., etc) ever truly have an open mind at the same time? Wont they be held back by dogma? Can someone who has chosen to believe that "god" chose a woman to give birth to his son or that millions of animals fit on a little boat, that a whale swallowed a man, he survived, then went on to save a plave called Ninevah, or that a prophet fell from the sky and had a series of revelations on the way down think rationally in other areas of their life? Has this been a problem that has prevented rational thought throughout history?
