I also would like to contribute by stating my "Opinion". Everyone has an opinion, and many of those who have a clear understanding how to express an opinion without drawing their readers into the belief that they are dictating their view will spur good conversation. It's not always necessary to go too far. Good writing leaves open to opportunity for the reader to form their own opinion. Remember that opinion is made up of ones own life experiences, knowledge, and environmental influence. Judgement is far less flexible, is made from facts and rules, and a high percentage of those who form a judgment from the same set of variables (the facts and rules) should result in the same conclusion. Simply said, Judgement is not often open to Opinion. So I agree, for engaging communication we should strive to leave plenty of room for opinions, encourage the voicing of opinions, and not restrict ourselves by rules and facts...the place for that is in Law and who wants to go there, that's not very fun...just my opinion.
