What we think is right is always right. What those who disagree with us think is right is always wrong. Does anyone dare to disagree? Why?

    I would like to believe I'm always right, but time and life have both taught me otherwise.
    I know that sometimes those I think are wrong, are actually right (and to be honest, I won't always admit it publicly, but I usually acknowledge it to myself).

    Neither of those examples is "always" right or "always" wrong, respectively, because people often change their minds about issues over a period of time. For instance, remember when you and I used to interact with each other?  Now we no longer do.  You must have thought you were right back then. 

    Premise rejected.

    A truly intelligent person recognizes that it's impossible to be always right and/or that the opponent is always wrong.

    I am continually growing and evolving. So, in any discussion/argument, I find it helpful to take some time to consider the other side and see if it has any merit. Usually, I find that issues are not totally black and white.
