I love debate and vigorous disagreement. Whether I'm debating or listening to others, I always feel like I learn a lot. If one can't express and defend their point, I'm probably not going to be swayed. However, I can't count the number of times a clear, well articulated argument has caused me to question my stand on some point. That reexamination of known truths is, IMO, the source of wisdom.
