Opinion (s)

Opinion - a view or judgement formed about something, not necessarily based on fact or knowledge.

In the past, under tyrannical leaders, people were not allowed to express their honest opinion. Heads would roll and opinions were supresed. We still have areas with such views.

In most places though, people have a right to an opinion.

That's a good thing, right?

It is good as long as one understands that opinion does not equal truth or fact in most cases.
It is good as long as one understands that opinion of majority does not necessarily represents the truth.
It is good as long as one understands to value different opinions.
It is good as long as we base our own opinion on as much facts as we can possibly aquire.
