Yes, I try to understand as much as I can; but I'm also aware that there will just be some things that are well beyond me. I still try, though, but will leave the talking to the folks with the better grasp on whatever the subject. Whether I agree with it, or not, depends entirely on the subject matter.

I dislike condescension, but deal with it on a daily basis at work so I'm sort of numb to it.
