Reply to comment by gummy_bare in Maturity is learning to walk away from people and situations that threaten your peace of mind, self-respect, values, morals, and self-worth.[image] by Omega_Neelay

You have a point but threaten your values and morals is different from challenging them.

That is basically what a bunch of far right-wing people say. I firmly disagree. If they are harassing or threatening you, walk/run away. If you are having a conversation though, and are having your beliefs/views questioned, it is good to listen, but remain critical. That is how you grow as a person and become better at challenging preconceived views you hold. It is hard to know you are right if you never hear what the other side has to say.

Okay but you literally repeated what I wrote. Threatening is different from challenging. „Threatening your morals“ to me sounds like someone trying to convince you to commit a crime for example.
