Question

Is there away to get people to open up their minds and stop being so prejudice or racist?

Answer 1

Yes, Being totally relative. Which is a bad thing- you just accept everything, nothing is right or wrong. You need prejudice of some kind if you want an objective moral standard- otherwise you just tolerate everything and be relative. I have to be prejudice in order for me to believe that racism is wrong. I have to make a clear distinguisment.

The answer to your question is simply for people to accept a moral standard. So now the question is, what moral standard and how. Thats why religion is so popular. Because religion doesnt tolerate bigotry and stuff. Because religion is prejiduce against whats wrong and makes a distinction about what is right. But theirein lies the problem, people think the distinction is subjective because a couple of old sages centuries ago came up with it. That they Created not discovered these values.

People need to embrace a moral standard. Even if they are not religious. That would be the quickest way. I cannot even conceive how we would get there now. Relativism is the great problem of the world. because it allows people to rationlize things like bigotry because under relativism you can tolerate it. Relativism is highly contradictory. thats why relativistic people are so easy to spot- they live their life values almost hypocritcally. On the converse they are hard to spot because they are not totally relativistic.

I hope this helps a litte.

Answer 2

Yes, and it involves abandoning the old testament.

Answer 3

One way is a good liberal education. But the most effective way to fight racism is by getting people to follow the Savior's way. The act of imitating Christ will make racism become a thing of the past.

Answer 4

Yes there are a ton of ways.  The problem is not every way works on every person and they can't be used on a large scale.  That and then you have those people who nothing will work on which is yet another problem.
