It helps, but ultimately my perception will overrule your opinion if the two conflict. I tend to not listen to or express opinion much—he says, about to express his opinion... It's like belief, where gaps of knowledge are filled by faith/assumption in order to reach a certain point of belief. An opinion is reached the same and implies there.could be (a lot) more time spent on assumption than checking other avenues. Afterall, if your opinion were true, it wouldn't be an opinion, it would just be what is. You'd be able to share the existing knowledge, not argue it. The more knowledge you can share, the more valid it is...unless I have a perception of value like first-hand experience or as a subject matter expert.

Although, keep in mind that I'll show you the same respect as you show me. We don't need.to respect each other's opinions.
