Hi Mike, Nick, Interesting commentaries.
Opinions (like beliefs) are only as good as how well they serve the beholder. Problems occur when end up identifying our sense of self with the opinions we hold. When we end up identifying our sense of self with an opinion, we have succumbed to serving it, instead of the opinion serving our best interests. We have essentially created an idol, a false-god that continuously demands worship. Sooner or later such steadfast held opinions will eventually demand sacrifices, all in the name of defending its honor. -- Regards Steven Vincent Johnson www.OrionWorks.com www.zazzle.com/orionworks
