Neophilic or Neophobic?

If the new idea doesn't run through my filter of the pluralistic human ethic in a good way, then I don't like the new idea. New ideas that don't really threaten people or infringe on people tend to be curious at worst and quick to adopt at best. If you see something new, what's your first response to it? Ask questions. Your first response to something new isn't, oh heck no. You know, you're not a good one.
