I'd read somewhere that challenging someone's beliefs triggers the fight or flight reaction just the same as physically threatening them. It may explain why some people get defensive.

It's certainly a fact that the more you push at someone's belief, the more entrenched they become even if they didn't really feel that strongly about it to begin with.
