The opposite of closed minded. Taking in any new information as the truth, without any objective analysis whatsoever.
Contrary to popular belief, this is not open mindedness. Open mindedness is finding a balance between closed mindedness and empty mindedness, allowing information in, but having a filter. Many people blame others for closed mindedness, claiming that they are open minded, when they are really only empty minded.
Here's a graphical representation for those of you that are verbally challenged:
Closed Minded----Open Minded----Empty Minded
Open minded, the balance of closed minded and empty minded, is the optimal thing to get. But, like I said, it is not achieved by just being empty minded; one must find a balance, not an extreme.
Example:
:OMG I SAW DIS MOVEE ND NOW I BELEEV BUSH BLU UP THE WORLD TRADE CENTER!!!
-I accept your theories as valid speculation, but until you provide me with solid, grounded evidence I won't be able to truly believe in them. Based on the general unlikelihood of the notion of your idea being true without any proof, the theory has the burden of proof before it should be believed.
:NO LIEKOMGZ TEH MOVEE SED IT WUZ BUSH, LOOK HE WUZ TAKING ABOUT TERISM BE4 911 THAT MEENZ IT WUZ HIMZZZZZ!!!!w#!1111!!!1
-Yes, I saw the movie as well, and I understand your point, however these interesting coincidences only really justify further investigation, not immediate belief in the ideas. One can find equally interesting coincidences regarding essentially any ideal, however most of these suggest things that are untrue. That is the nature of coincidences, they suggest interest in trying to possibly find a cause for their pattern, however the pattern is usually just, well, a coincidence. I am willing to be open minded and accept your theory as valid speculation, as I said before, but I am not willing to be empty minded and just take it without thinking about it. Until there is more evidence that this is the case than that something else is the case, I won't be able to believe it.
:YOR SO CLOZD MINDED!!!!
-Well, I'm trying my best to be as objective as possible, however I suppose there is never any harm in trying to increase my objectivity, thanks for the tip. I think, however, you are probably a bit too "empty minded." No offense, just as a word of advice, perhaps you should take some time to think about your justification of your ideals. A course or two in logic might help you out.
:ZOMG YOR SO EVUL I CNT BELEEF YOO IM LEEVING!!!!!1112!211@!!!!!1!111eleven1!!!!111

The empty minded guy was from California, a land where he thought you could trust everybody you meet, since everybody he met seemed perfect to him. People tend to continue to get other people to assume you trust each other if you don't ever think to tell anybody otherwise.

A guy from California who thinks nobody he had ever met in life had ever tried to capitalize off a perceived weakness of his. Nobody had ever thought he was oblivious to their true agenda in life, everybody he met was perfect and wonderful.
The empty minded guy seemed to trust everybody he met, though people considered him ignorant, and his existence blissful.

The kind of guy who thinks there is more drama in somebody else's family, or that growing up in another city really lowers your life expectancy more than not thinking does.
The empty minded guy was from California, a land of palm trees and sunny beaches, so he thought nobody else around him in his town was thinking either, that it was something only people way off in the east did, since California was already perfect.
