Being open-minded, non-judgmental and accepting of people of all beliefs, races and creeds gives you an edge and an insight that close-minded people lack.
As an actor you cannot be closed off to anything as it is your job to interpret the best and the worst of the human condition. Therefore an open mind is vital, for it allows you to listen in a non-judgmental way to different opinions than your own and therefore form a balanced view and respect for different customs, races and ideas.
As an actor, being open-minded is an education in human beliefs and ideas – and acting is all about bringing new ideas into play in the service of the role.
