Personally, I seek out and follow people I disagree with. Unfortunately, they don't always appreciate being confronted with someone who disagrees with them, but usually as long as both parties are mature, honest and open, one side or both sides can grow and learn from the interaction. Obviously there is a limit to how useful opposing view points can be, and you still have to be discerning and patient, particularly to avoid people who antagonistic, hostile or otherwise dishonest.

This is generally what I do. In understanding why someone feels the way they do, especially if you just can't seem to understand why at first, is a great way to be exposed to a ton of things you probably wouldn't be.
