I have been thinking about
I have been thinking about our confusing conversation surrounding the difference between facts and opinions. What I have determined is that facts are objectively true or false, depending on empirical evidence. Opinions are subjectively true or false, depending on personal experience. I think one of the places where we became confused yesterday is how to draw the line between subjectivity and objectivity. And I'm sure this will continue to confuse us. Realistically speaking, objectivity is not attainable and never will be, as is truth. Having said this, I realize I must now change my definitions of "facts" and "opinions", so I suppose that facts are less subjective than opinions. Perhaps facts are the most agreed upon subjective opinions?
