Open or Closed?

“The middah [aspect of truth] warns against self-righteousness
and holding ourselves and our holy curriculum
as morally superior to Others.  Rather we are
to be guided by the qualities of truth and compassion,
and to always remember that while differences
exist, it is not for us to judge.” - Rabbi Moshe Cordevero

Can we do this?  Be open and compassionate to those with whom we disagree?

Of course, now in the 21 st century we must ask: are we better or worse for it?
