Good thoughts!
It's also valuable to meet people where they are, and adjust your method accordingly. Sometimes you just cut bait, maybe with a kind word or question that might provoke thought. Other times the socratic method is best, because they're good thinkers, but can't see their own inconsistencies (my favorite method of teaching). Some would rather just debate, which is fine too. I can engage on that level, if the other person is kind and avoids anger. As soon as there's animosity, I'm done.
