Sorry Jim, much though it pains me to agree with Culzean
Life 101....
Not everything you agree with is correct, and not everything you disagree with is wrong.
( refer to the signature line at bottom of my posts )
Nope, I've read this several times and I still don't understand your point. If the implication is that I'm an idiot because I disagree with you then (a) that's offensive to me and demeaning to you, and (b) I didn't offer any opinions, I was just supporting your statements by agreeing with your facts.
I am at a loss why you feel insulted, Read it again - what I am actually saying is when
I tell someone something they do not agree with they will consider
me an idiot, but if
I tell them something
they agree with they will probably consider me an expert ( confirmation bias, people who agree with you are always smarter than those who do not )..
Some people will only consider you an expert if they agree with your point of view or advice, when you give them advice they don't like they consider you an idiot
