If your "strongly held belief" can't survive scrutiny or contact with intelligent argumentation it doesn't deserve to be a "strongly held belief."
Regularly examining your own assumptions and attacking your own point of view will not only help you better solve real problems, it will allow you to better recognize and answer specious arguments as they arise.
