Carnality and worldly are not synonyms. They are not even the same part of speech. They are not antonyms for not letting in new ideas.
The word carnal refers to meat. Think carnivore. Carnality is a pejorative for crude sexual appetite. It does not mean open-minded in any positive way. Depending on context, sensuous, pure, or chaste, could be antonyms for carnal.
The opposite of worldly is spiritual.
Worldy-wise means something similar to sophisticated. The opposite of worldly-wise would be naive.
A word for not letting in new ideas is cloistered, or, perhaps, puritanical.
