King Solomon,
Yes I believe everyone is entitled to their own opinions. We all have opinions. We swim in an ocean of opinions. That's the way our brains work. Fortunately we aren't bound by facts but can use our imaginations to open new doors. Facts become important when it's time to reach a decision on some specific action or community project. Some areas of life require diagnostic thinking which is a hodge podge of intuitions, hypothesis, best practices, urgency, emergency etc. For example: to circumcise your baby boy or not.
Being an atheist I tend to look at circumcision as ritual mutilation of sexual organs. For years I have argued against it. Kids just need to practice good hygene and there won't be any problem. Apparently that was just a matter of my opinion. Now doctors are saying that the benefits of circumcision for public health greatly exceed any risk, pain or inconvenience. This is hard for me to accept because I have ridiculed it for so long based on its association with Biblical covenants.
Pure opinion? What about contaminated facts?
There is no need for an arrogant lecture about fact and fiction. Just think of my comment on Babylon the Great as a working hypothesis.
