I have changed my mind based on real life discussions with people, but I’m too stubborn, and too wary of strangers on the internet, to change my mind based on a yeshivaworld discussion.
I don’t mean changing your views out of respect of others. Sometimes, in a conversation with someone else, you get to see a different perspective clearer, or notice something you missed before. The change of mind starts and finishes with yourself, but is inspired by a comment made by someone else. Wariness is much less the issue than stubbornness in this case; why should the stranger factor make a difference here?
