Do you mean that opinions cannot be false, or that it cannot be morally wrong to hold a particular opinion?

Can beliefs be wrong? What is the relation between a belief and a corresponding opinion?

If opinions can't be false, does that also mean they can't be true? And if so, then what are the sorts of things that can have truth values? Propositions maybe? And if I hold an opinion about a true proposition (Call it P) that it is false, then does it follow that it is neither true nor false that P is false? Or does that sort of thing not count as a genuine opinion? And if not, then what is a paradigmatic example of an opinion?

Opinions are supported by facts, which can be false or true. If you prove most of the facts that support an opinion as false, the opinion will turn red. Keep at it, until the opinion has no health left, and the opinion will die.

I appreciate that you're creating threads. Unfortunately opinions can be wrong, as in not true. But I guess you're half true, if you understand wrong as 'knowable untrue', since nothing can really be known about anything you can call an opinion, because facts require empiricism and observation, which cannot give perfect knowledge. Imho.

Imho. I tend to think that if an account of knowledge entails that we don't have any (or, more narrowly, that our best scientific efforts couldn't hope to produce it), that's pretty much a reductio ad absurdum for that account of knowledge. If you're still uncomfortable calling the results of empirical science 'knowledge,' then let me propose that whenever our best attempts at applying the scientific method result in an accurate mind-to-world fit, call that mind-world-method relation 'schmawledge.' Then we can both be happy.

If an opinion can't be wrong, then it also can't be right. Law of opposites, my friend.

Excuse me, but I do not appreciate you insinuating that this thread for determining the superiority of people's opinions vis-à-vis topics such as rear end vs titties is not serious.
