Because if we all had the same opinion and agreed on everything the world would be a very boring place lol

But honestly. I have no problems with other peoples opinions just as long as they respect mine.

What I don't like is when we all get in a debate and a few start calling one another names. Then that is just immature in my opinion.

Opinions are like pennies - everyone has one (yeah I know you all know the REAL saying has a different word in place of pennies - trying to keep it clean here)

Those who feel the need to put you down for your opinion only do so out of lack of confidence in THEMSELVES no you. And those who share their opinion without making rude remarks are doing just that - sharing.

I for one like to hear others opinions as it can open your eyes to something that may never have occurred to you before.

Besides - I know my opinion is the only one that matters so its all good....HA HA HA just kidding!

Just sticking to the question, I find kind of silly coming from an educated man.

But that's just my opinion. laugh

What better way to get to know people?

Every one has opinions and since we are all different we all have differnet opinions the sad things is when people attack other for having a different opinion. To debate with another can be a good thing but have the respect and understanding that not eveyone has to think like the same as you.

I am glad you are aware of it!

personally I am mostly referring to negative thinking people getting bent they aren't dumb just seeing in hurtful ways that is hurting them selves and don't know it.

It's when I put a positive edge to what they say that they get bent with me.canada
