Does hearing an opposing view point actually cause harm?

Does the opposing view point include bombing the opponent you could probably hear that.

Its possible. While most would agree hearing an opposing point of view would motivate the listener to consider alternative possibilities. But considering the ego, and the pride of an individual, hearing an opposing point of view can make an individual angry, and thus potentially cause harm.

No. Just another opinion. (they could be right)

It's the opposite, hearing various points of view is good for everyone. Hiding from opposing points of view leads to paranoia and bigotry. It can be done politely though. Discussing different points of view doesn't have to involve constant insults.
