just note that you are disagreeing with me on what an opinion is.

 

 

its like me arguing with you that Maybin is a white person and not black.

LAST TRY

 

If I were to say..."I think Maybin is white..."

 

Wouldn't you say my opinion was wrong? :whistle

I thought my argument has always been about the nature of an opinion. Specifically the question 'if an opinion is based on nothing, is it valid?'

 

If I said 'I think cameron maybin is white' then it'd be ok. That's the problem with your line of thinking. You can say anything so long as you say 'imo' before it.

How about we get back on topic? I thought this was a thread about hanley leading off not about little girls disagreeing about what tampons they use

How is that an opinion? Because you said "I think"?

 

Thats like saying "I think gravity doesn't exist"

 

It can mean a couple of things. 1) You don't know the difference between black and white and/or 2) You've never seen a picture of Maybin and thus making an ignorant statement.

It is an opinion, one based on a false fact.

 

wow

 

a false fact? really?

 

you guys are going beyond special ed here...

 

hahaha

 

but it is funny

Saying 'I don't believe in gravity' is no different than saying 'I believe cameron maybin is the best player I'm baseball', the only difference is you believe that gravity is an immutable law (as do I), whereas quality of baseball player is open to interpretation and can't be definitively stated. This is where we differ.

 

I believe that in baseball, you can use what a player has done to come up with immutable facts about them, which can prove opinions wrong.

 

If you believe 'I believe gravity exists' can be proven right or wrong, which you obviously do, then you are going back on your previously held assertions that opinions can not be right or wrong, but that they simply exist. You are just changing the context in which they can be judged, just as you belittled erick for when he brought politics as an example where you can't be right or wrong.

I've said numerous times you can think whatever you want, you are the one who has been attacking my belief on this issue.

 

I'm fine with whatever you think, all I ask is consistency if you are going to be so gung ho about it to call people out on it, something you haven't shown at all.

Your second sentence doesn't make much sense.

 

Gravity is a law. it is proven. If I say I don't believe in it, I'm wrong. If I say "The thing that holds us to the earth and causes objects to fall is unexplainable or is magic" then I'm just delusional.

 

Do you know the difference between a theory and a law? One can be disputed the other is proven.

bob, you and Erick and Rab can keep saying "wrong opinion" all you want. That doesn't mean there is such a thing. All it does it make you look dumb and if you're cool with that then so am I.

I haven't even been here for over an hour.

 

Man, for someone who "doesn't care", you sure do spend a lot of time arguing this. It's almost sad.

I don't care whether or not you change your mind on this subject. I have no control over that. You have to be able to be open minded and have the ability to admit when you're wrong about something.

 

I just enjoy taking sucka's to school and this is killing a lot of time at work so, in a way, I thank you all for being so ignorant.

Heh.

 

I still love that your lack of reading comprehension caused you to attack someone who was agreeing with you. And your stubbornness and lack of "not caring" cause you to pretend something happened that didn't.

Yeah, same here.

Also...I don't know if anyone has noticed, but there is pretty much a double standard now in his posting.

 

If someone doesn't believe in gravity...that is an opinion. (a wrong opinion...b/c it has been proven. Seriously, it's not difficult)

You guys are more sensitive than pack of teenage girls on their periods if you feel i'm "attacking" someone.

You should probably take your own advice on the 1st bolded sentence.

 

PS - Why are you even arguing with Rab? He's been saying all thread he doesn't believe in "wrong opinions."

Me. I was agreeing with you. You quoted me an everything but you rather call me "unintelligent" than read.

There is absolutely no way he hasn't realized that yet. Helen Keller would have seen that by now.

I don't see how he can't see how he is being inconsistent. This guy is amazing. Especially because he keeps touting himself as the smartest person in the thread and yet he can't follow any argument longer than 5 words.

 

This has to be someone pulling a prank.

If someone doesn't believe in gravity...that is an opinion. (a wrong opinion...b/c it has been proven. Seriously, it's not difficult)

 

I'll put it to you like this...

 

If I were to say "Favre is not going to play this upcoming season" , which is an opinion, and he ends up playing this season technically I predicted that incorrectly. But, before the season started I simply had an opinion on the issue of whether or not Favre would play this season. My opinion isnt right or wrong, its simply my perception of the situation.

 

If I see he joins the Vikings and starts playing this season and I say "Favre is not going to play this upcoming season" already having known hes coming back to play then I would be making a false statement, its not an opinion anymore, its a fact.

Why are you so horrible with analogies?

We were talking about opinions like "I think Cameron Maybin is white," and now all of the sudden you've changed this to a predictions thread. Of course that's not a wrong opinion. It hasn't been proven.

 

THIS IS NOT DIFFICULT TO COMPREHEND!

 

Seriously, is this a prank?

 

Edit: Just saw your last paragraph. Why is it any different? You're still saying the same f***ing thing. Your opinion is a false statement in this case...and thus, it is wrong.

This is so awesome. That guy just used an opinion that is based on incorrect information as an example of a wrong opinion to prove that there's no such thing as a wrong opinion, and then he said it isn't an opinion because it is wrong.

 

Correct me if I'm not following, but that's basically what I see.
