We often don't think so, but we always have preconceptions of ideas and thoughts which we take with us into a room, into a book, into a TV show, into a conversation.
These preconceptions are hard to dislodge unless you are conscious of this filter that you are automatically using when you are with new information. In other words, if you can go into a situation with an open mind, then you will get to hear and see more accurately what is presented to you.
Checkout this video below of an interview between a reporter and a Muslim scholar and professor of religion who has just written a book on Jesus.
