It can also refer to unfounded beliefs and may include any unreasonable attitude that is unusually resistant to rational influence."

Prejudice, merely as in preconceived notions (of course), as opposed to the negatively perceived one (which is ironically, prejudiced - as expected). Let me check Webster. Yep, definition fits perfectly.
