Is it better to be right for the wrong reason or wrong for the right reason and why?

Since this is a philosophical question, I can only give a philosophical answer. I feel it is better to be wrong for the right reason rather than to be right for the wrong reason. If one is wrong for the right reason, then I feel they at least had good intentions. If one is right for the wrong reason, then I would have to wonder if their intentions were the right ones in the first place. But the really important thing, in my "philosophical" answer, is for one to be able and willing to admit when they are wrong.
