I know people who will stick with their opinion regardless of the evidence to the contrary. At first it's frustrating trying to reason with them, then it becomes painful watching them come up with all sorts of convoluted ideas to support their view, or they might even attack on some unrelated front. I don't bother arguing once I work out that someone's like that. The last such discussion I recall was about who saved us from the Japanese in WWII, the British or the Americans: answer seems obvious to me.
