AN OPINION IS A DOOR NAILED SHUT
When we form an opinion
The opinion becomes the filter through which we view the world
We like something because it agrees with our opinion
We dislike something because it disagrees with our opinion
An opinion is a disadvantage to learning and growth
An opinion is a done deal
But a theory is open to revision
Open to modification and welcomes
New information
An opinion wants to argue because it threatens
The identity of the opinionated one
A theory is open to revision
Welcomes new information
A theory can be based on the same feelings as an opinion
But without the hard cutting edge of rejection
A theory expands and includes
An opinion closes off and excludes
So a theory is far superior to an opinion
At least, that is my theory.
