Petrified means hardened. In the case of human opinion, a hardened opinion allows no room for interaction with the hearts and minds of others with sufficient humility to allow ourselves to see new possibilities. Larger, better possibilities. Loyal ownership of an errant view is misplaced loyalty that at best may lead to our distraction. At worst, to our destruction.
I ask you, does this sound like somebody we all know? Like someone whose petrified opinions about almost everything in regard to running the United States is wreaking havoc on our citizens and our allies?
Good descriptor for his views!

The only things worse than petrified opinions are demented ones. His are both.
