A U.S. Message Board member recently pointed out to me that irrespective of what anyone else thinks, he's entitled to his own opinion. To my surprise, after I looked up the word "opinion" in the dictionary, it suddenly dawned on me that the reason I struggle so much with some of the opinions of others is because they state their opinion as fact or as if their opinions, even when uninformed are as a valid as those based in fact or knowledge. Thus the rise of "alternative facts" in a sense.
A fact is something that can be proven or disproved, an opinion is apparently anything you want it to be. What is easier for you all, proving something or disproving it and why? I think it it often easier for me to disprove than prove but that may just be my default, not that it's actually easier.
I've seen it written that outside of court it doesn't really matter. What say you all?
