What’s right about what the other side has to say?

As a person involved in starting discussions of the two things you’re not supposed to bring up (politics and religion) I feel it necessary to point out that while everyone involved in the dialogue has their own perspective, it’s important to listen to what the other has to say. A conversation with someone will be much more enlightening than spouting of facts that seem to prove one’s point. When discussing matters of disagreement, I ask myself, “What’s right about what the other person has to say?” None of us know everything. Let’s stop pretending that we do and try to learn something new.
