About this video
Critical thinking is not just a set of logical skills; it also depends on our mental habits and intellectual character. In this conversation, Hamed Safaeipour and Akbar Soltani discuss the question of how to cultivate a questioning, fair-minded mind ready to revise its beliefs.
The focus of the discussion is the relationship between mental habits, rational judgment, and tolerance. If a person cannot recognize their own cognitive errors, biases, and mental hastiness, dialogue with others easily turns into quarrel, exclusion, or misunderstanding.
The importance of this conversation lies in linking critical thinking with a culture of tolerance and social life. This video is suitable for audiences interested in philosophical education, thinking skills, the ethics of dialogue, and cultivating a critical mind.
