Winning a Debate Against Someone You Disagree With
Are you constantly arguing with people who disagree with you? How can you win the debate?
We argue with those who disagree with us, trying to prove we are right and they are wrong. Yet, we don't realize that we cannot change another's mind about a situation. It doesn't matter what information we present them, they may be stuck in their beliefs. Due to their own bias, and even cognitive dissonance, a person's belief may be ingrained in their mind, rigid, unable to change. There is nothing wrong with someone's beliefs, as we all have the right to our views and opinions.
We are always 'right' with our views since we have the freedom to have opinions. But, we can never change another's mind or convince them that they are wrong, regardless of what information we present them. An attempt to do so may cause us even more stress.
