"We should be courteous for one reaon only: because it's the right thing to do."

Digging deeper it's an ethics quesiton of whether things are right in and of themselves as "duties", or whether things are right due to their consequences, a classic debate between deontologists and consequentialists. Thanks for sharing your point of view!

I agree completely!

Sometimes people are bad at listening when they believe the speaker has a great point. That's what excites the listener to race ahead to responses. I think it's easier said than done to be patient in those situations.
