Baldric - /////It can't be wrong - it's an OPINION!!!!!!!!///
Of course it can be wrong. An opinion offered as an answer to a question has a 50/50 chance of being correct, and at some stage facts will materialise which will prove the opinion to be right or wrong. //
I have to disagree.
An opinion is never 'correct', or indeed 'incorrect' - by definition, and I have posted one - an opinion is one person's view on something. It is not intended to be the definitive version of anything, it is just that person's view, and anyone is welcome to agree, or not.
There is no such thing as an opinion having a '50/50 chance of being correct" - please let me give you an example.
Opinion - Rod Hull and Emu have created a greater lasting effect on modern culture than the works of William Shakespeare.
Now that is a point of view, but if you waited for hell to freeze over, that could never ever become a fact.
// I think the main problem is that AH just can't accept that sometimes he just doesn't get it right, well that's my opinion anyway. //
And you are entitled to think that, but you are in fact wrong.
History shows that I am more than happy to admit an error if I have made one - I did so earlier today on one of the Jacob Rees-Mogg threads.
I have no problem in being wrong, or admitting that I am wrong.
When I stated that the Catholic church does not exclude people who go against its doctrine, it was pointed out that I was wrong. And I was, I stated as a fact something which is incorrect.
What I have a problem with, is offering an opinion, and being told I am wrong, which by definition, cannot be the case.
