Minnesota Icy Hot

An act first performed by the Mdewakanton Sioux of Prior Lake, Minnesota, it is a complicated and highly dangerous sexual act/exotic dance ritual/rite of passage for young Native American men once they turn 18. First, the person coats their testicles in a flammable petroleum jelly. Then the tribal elder lights a torch and brings the torch to the coated testicles and lights it. Then the young man must find and wrangle a moose and ride it into a frozen lake. Once the fire is out he must perform a highly erotic and complicated dance, which involves going up to a young woman and hitting her with his scrotum Once this is complete, he becomes a man.
Guy 1: Dude, did you hear about Charlie Moose Horn? He was performing his Minnesota Icy Hot and he accidentally died!
Guy 2: I guess that's what happens when you put Vaseline on your balls and try to ride a moose into a lake...
Guy 1: Native Americans are weird...

open-minded 

1. Ready to accept on firm evidence that one's most cherished beliefs may be hogwash, but bearing in mind that extraordinary claims demand extraordinary evidence.

2. Politically correct synonym for "gullible" used by New Age quacks who want to sell you a bill of goods.
I am open-minded about the existence of the Judeo-Christian God. If he appears in the immortal flesh in the heavens to me and a few billion other people and manifests his power openly in such a manner that it cannot possibly be a dream, illusion, hallucination or anything of the sort, I'll accept he is there. In the meantime, it is more befitting the heritage of the human intellect to ignore such figures as mythical.

Open-mindedness is a virtue, but when dealing with New Age salespeople it is important to remember that if you keep your mind too open, your brain may fall out.

Open Minded

Being open minded is being willing to give many different practices and opinions consideration.

However, this does NOT equate to tolerance. Tolerance implies being okay with people doing whatever they want. Open mindedness is only giving it consideration.

Unfortunately, many left-leaning people seem to think they're the same, and, as an insult, accuse more conservative people of being close-minded, which makes little sense.
I told her I was personally against gay marriage, because it violates natural law. So she said that I am not open minded, and called me a dirty racist conservative.
