From my own frame of mind, it's not whether philosophy changes your thinking, but the extent to which your thinking [old or new] comports with objective reality.

In other words, can you demonstrate that your new thinking reflects what all rational men and women are obligated to think in turn or not?

In the end, then, it seems we are left with a fundamental choice. Either we can leave this potential disharmony with our beliefs alone by ignoring it or developing a deep skepticism for the truth; or we may find that these conflicts prompt a quest for invention and a desire for new ways of viewing the world and ourselves. In the process of destroying old beliefs, the hope is that something more durable will emerge. And along the way, we might just change our minds.
