Confirming Disagreement

This chapter is a great about relating personal life to the others view. I feel uncomfortable while confirming with my friends about my disagreement to their viewpoints. I do not want to hurt them by saying that I disagree with their views. Instead of confirming I would either argue with my friends or tell them why I disagree. But after reading chapter eight I learnt that I should rather first respect their point of view (recognition), confirm with them my disagreement (acknowledgement) and then I should argue about it (endorsement). The difference between confirmation and endorsement is that in confirmation we confirm others that we understand their views and respect their ideas, but endorsement means it is a formal approval that we agree with the ideas. We might not confirm our disagreement in endorsement but we just approve the other persons ideas. On the other hand in confirmation we not only confirm but endorse also, or in other words we validate the others idea.
