Intellectual Civility 
"A commitment to take others seriously as thinkers, to treat them as intellectual equals, to grant respect and full attention to their views -- a commitment to persuade rather than to browbeat.  It is distinguished from intellectual rudeness: verbally attacking others, dismissing them, stereotryping their views.  Intellectual civility is not a matter of mere courtesy but, instead arises from a sense that communication itself requires honoring others' views and their capacity to reason."
