Exactly. You can have the kind not necessarily based on fact or knowledge (your kind - pulling stuff out of your butt) or the kind that is based on fact or knowledge (such as usually offered by someone like D6).

 

I think I now know why we have the kind of politicians we do. Thanks for clearing that up.

Exactly. :thumbsup:

 

As I told Knarnn, now I know why we have the politicians we have. Must be a Riverside thing.

No. Forming an opinion of a fact does not mean that fact backs up your opinion.


Here's an example:


Fact: Man kills another man

Opinion: He deserved it.


The fact of him being dead does not prove the opinion that he deserved to die.

 

Would any reason in the world change it from being an OPINION, he deserved it, to being a FACT that he deserved it?

 

Any reason at all, like he had just killed the man's entire family, including 3 children, 2 babies and 3 small dogs just because he wanted to see what it was like to kill an entire family?

 

Or is there nothing in the world that can change an opinion into a fact?

Condescension...the last gasp for breath of a dead argument.

But then it wouldn't be an opinion any more...it would be a fact.

Frivolity ... the last gasp of no argument. (No emoticons?)

You should have searched a little harder, you might have found a word that actually applied. I'm sure you will do better next time...hopefully.

But then it wouldn't be an opinion any more...it would be a fact.

 

So that would mean the opinion he stated was really a fact after all.

 

Was it an opinion because he just happened to state it too early? Maybe it was a pre-fact.

Yeah, we got derailed like the Gus bus did this season didn't we?

 

Hopefully we can both get back on track sooner rather than later.
