And of course no where did I actually say that you haven't the right to be stupid, say stupid things or form stupid thoughts from a lack of knowledge and understanding.

I am just concerned that you seem so determined to do exactly that....

You lectured your opinion on the definition of opinion without revealing that you were speaking about the legal definition rather than he common English definition until the actual definition was posted, I'm unsure if you're trying to be smart or just arrogant.

I never mentioned that you denied the right to be stupid etc, it's stupid to imply that I did.

You should be offering your opinion on how to weigh others opinions, not argue about the definition of a word, I understand what you're trying to do and I somewhat agree with you but you could go about it in a better way, but that's just my opinion.

yep... i offered it as purely an argument without clarifying initially.... but then I did...

and the point is that you didn't recognise what it was... before or after that

and of course there is a better way... there is always a better way

Everyone has the right to an opinion and the right to voice it, no matter how stupid or ill founded, this is at the core of a free society.

that in response to my posts implies that I didn't think that... hence my response...

"weight" or credibility isn't the actual issue... the issue is the proliferation and noise from uniformed opinion expressed because of percieved right. Our world is full of information, the solution isn't more analysis of more crap, its less crap.
