I think that you look at how you believe in what you believe in every time you try explaining it to someone else. I've gotten in totally obnoxious yelling sessions over things with people I knew I couldn't ever convince and never agree with on that issue, and it also gave me insight on what I don't believe in. it's like you give your thoughts a review every time you try to convince someone else that you're right. you really convince yourself that this is what you want to believe. I've done this, and many times, it's led to me changing my attitudes on things, not because of someone else's arguing, but because I saw flaws in my own side of the issue that made me wonder how right I was. or maybe that's just how I do things and the rest of the world would think me a loon for saying this. oh well.--k--
