I guess that I find the philosophical discussions here offer a couple of points of value. First off I have become disillusioned with the religious philosophy that I was raised with. While I am not ready to give it all up I am still attempting to explore other possibilities. The discussions here give me many different philosophies to consider. Secondly I find that seeing how others think and believe gives me another's perspective on life and how they see it. When you can relate to another person's view of things you are able to empathize with them and learn how to work with them better.
I think even just the examining of my own beliefs is a positive thing about philosophical discussion, even if I don't change that belief. In that case it just solidifies my conviction concerning my own position.
