Sense of pride * 1
    #19311495 - 12/22/13 11:20 AM (10 years, 1 month ago)

What's up with the whole "pride" thing and preventing people from being unable to admit their mistakes or change their opinions? Don't you think one should be proud of being able to fess up to their wrong doings or be open-minded enough to consider outside perspectives as seriously as their own?

Do you think the idea of "holding onto one's pride" ultimately stems from fear?

Probably. The fear of being wrong is absolutely terrifying when you invest lots of time and energy into thinking one way and slowly begin to realize that maybe you might be wrong. People either double down or open up.

But according to relativism there is no right or wrong so it doesn't really matter.

You should have at least some sense of pride, no matter who you are. Be proud of you and your beliefs. But at least have reasons for them and don't act like a sheep. Humility is a must though. It's often much harder to find. It says much more about somebody. I always try to look at all sides of a situation... no matter how grim it may be.
