One year ago, I've found the right word for narrow minded people; fanatic; a child (immature). Not exactly the right word you say?
Lets explore my arguments further. As a father of two children, I have privilege to observe their behaviors. Both my children love to see cartoon. Have you ever wonder why they were only attracted to cartoon? Why did they turn their head away every time I switched the TV program to a non-cartoon movie/program?
I've noticed that many children only responded to certain color. Perhaps the ability to recognize (register) colors still only limited to 12 colors? To support my arguments, I gave a 4 year old boy a 120 color pencils. Later I asked him to give me a RED pencil color. He was confused for more then 5 minutes in deciding which one is the red one I asked of him? Finally, he turn around to me and asked,"Why there are many red pencil colors in this pencil case?"
Isn't a narrow minded people only recognize (register) a limited set of colors? The inability to recognize (register) more colors brought a fanaticism inside of them. They failed to recognize more colors that can give them more knowledge DEPTH.
Are you still staring at a 256 colors computer monitor? I hope not. Your mobile device display probably already using 65,000 colors. If yes, perhaps you are not optimizing a full advantage of smooth 16.7 million colors of JPG (Joint Photographic Group). Isn't it time that we all get to know any colors available in the universe? Isn't it time to admit that our "red" color is not the reddest and maybe not the brightest.
This self-righteousness was not the monopoly of certain group of people, perhaps as a Christian (I do believe in Jesus), we should know better that we do not hold the whole truth unless we are in His love (love your neighbours as your self).
