I don't have to agree with a character's point of view, but few things will get me to jump ship faster than if I start to feel like the creator is preaching at me while wearing the character's face.
I'm putting this here now to hopefully remind me later to post some thoughts on how authors can make readers think without preaching at them [all from my itty-bitty POV, of course; your mileage may vary].
