Re: Mind's Eye Opinions

Much opinion is rubbish - try interviewing eye-witnesses.  Yet Andrew is right.  We can think in different models.  Testimony is a difficult chestnut for philosophy.  In some ways we should just accept it - but should we just accept eye-witness evidence that 'the black guy did it' or pay attention to blood spatter on someone else's shoes and the fingerprints on the knife?

If you agree with me it means you second my personal statement. An original statement can be accepted by many people

If I agree with your opinion, can it not be as well my "personal statement"?

When opinions are original they are said to be ' personal statements '.

Every once in a while there are replies to posts stating (or perhaps complaining)  that the opinions stated are just "personal statements" and/or that the opinions stated are "not original". This leaves me puzzled.  Are not ALL  opinions "personal statements"? And are not ALMOST ALL opinions "not original"?
