My understanding is to be open minded with people who have taken their time to learn a subject and not tolerate one trick ponies who don't understand how to be diplomatic, have little understanding of their subject matter and want to shout about it anyway.

Only this morning I fully took on board what Jet said in another thread. His words, put across in an eloquent and thoughtful way, had me re-think my thoughts about Irelands political parties.
There have been numerous occasions when both NorthernMonkey and Bitontheslide have heavily debated things I didn't initially agree with but was later swayed round to their way of thinking.

Have you got any examples of when you had your views on a subject changed?

And you wonder why people accuse you of being ignorant.

Ignorant people who call others ignorant don’t count.
