Prejudice, not being founded on reason, cannot be removed by argument


Prejudice, not being founded on reason, cannot be removed by

Summary

This quote suggests that prejudice, which is a preconceived opinion or judging others without justification, is not based on rational thinking. Therefore, it cannot be eliminated simply through logical reasoning or persuasive arguments. Since prejudice is often deeply ingrained in individuals, it requires more than just a logical counter-argument to change one's biased beliefs. Instead, methods like education, exposure to diversity, empathy-building, and personal experiences are more likely to challenge and gradually eradicate prejudice.
