Dogmatism and dogmatic behaviour

[Vintus]

Just a quick one.

It's pervasive, in all walks of life. Religion, politics, academia, family life, just to name some of the obvious areas.

I've been reading more and more on it and I'm curious to know what forum goers think on this topic.

How has it affected your life? How do you deal with it? To what extent have you realised your own dogmatic behaviours? What insights have you had around it?

For clarity, I've been in university for a few years now and I'm getting to grips with academias influence on young minds, including my own. I've toyed around with a few ideologies and belief systems, one of which I still hold would be veganism, although I've mellowed out thankfully.
