When we debate, we often find ourselves quickly bogged down by or in an entrenched opinion. In my opinion it is important to remain open minded when discussing difficult subject matter. Debate isn't about being critical, it is about offering new and different perspectives. We gain insight into new perspectives through experience, thus it is important to live by getting involved and embracing the experience what ever the experience may be. Entrenched opinion is the source for many of the world's problems and I would encourage everyone to step back and imagine and attempt to "feel" other perspectives and always share the experience.
If we seek to be critical others will feel criticized. If we seek to be sincere we will achieve sincerity and sincerity equals caring.
Changing perspective will change your mind.
