The root cause of the discussions lies in the ego. There is a kind of subtle lack of generosity towards others ideas. Even though we lack the power to understand the other person, there is a tendency to consider ourselves better in intelligence and understanding. In a way this encourages our hypocrisy. We tend to get into the heated discussion with so much interest that at times it is impossible to accept the truth in other persons arguments. Occasionally we tend to press our point in spite of knowing and ignoring the truth in other person's arguments. Often we misuse our intelligence to win the arguments.
