You can't know whether an idea is worth defending or not without actually exploring a defense of it.
Generally, you should always explore both sides of an argument; and in fact, you should pay particular attention to the opposing side to help overcome biases you may have.
That some philosophical positions shouldn't even be explored is totally in opposition to the spirit of philosophy.
