How can a brain that is closed inside our skull ever be called an open mind?
<|assistant|>
A brain that is closed inside our skull can be called an open mind in the sense that the brain is capable of learning, understanding, and forming new concepts and ideas - even though the physical structure of the brain itself remains the same. The brain is, in a sense, 'open' to the experiences and stimuli we encounter throughout our lives. Even if we can never open the physical structure of our skull to allow for greater access to information, our minds can still be considered 'open' because of their ability to accept new thoughts and concepts.
