And that you can never know the intelligence of what you want to stay, until you say it. And chances are if it's really dumb you woulnt have said it in the first place so that's not a problem.

But how does one know if they know what they are talking about?
Thus is why I never speak in case I'm stupid in something.

hi just thought i would leave a comment, surely by the very meaning of the word "opinion" it cant make you dumb or smart?! surely its the argument you support your opinion with that makes you dumb or smart! i think opinions are important otherwise you wouldn't have democracy

OPINIONS MATTER. IT GIVES ANOTHER VANTAGE POINT TO GET A BETTER PICTURE. TO PULL THE PLUG OR NOT? WITHOUT YOUR OPINION WE COULD MAKE A POOR CHOICE. DO YOU WANT TO BE THE PERSON WHO HAD AN OPINION, BUT DID NOT OFFER IT TO THE PUBLIC BECAUSE YOU HAVE A FEAR OF SOUNDING STUPID. WHAT IF YOUR OPINION COULD HAVE SAVED A LIFE? WHO CARES IF YOU CAN SAVE A LIFE? I DO. PLEASE OWN UP TO YOUR OPINIONS. BE PROUD OF THEM. WE LEARN FROM OTHERS AND WE LEARN FROM OUR MISTAKES.

Please do not write in all caps. It's hard on the eyes, and it appears as shouting.
OT: You can go back and forth all you wish, but to blunt (which is hat may get through to you), if you don't offer opinions, ideas or thoughts, you aren't going to get anywhere in life. Guaranteed.

It is important to share your opinion on any given topic or scenario, providing you are involved in it. Anyone would sound stupid if they just came into a conversation and blurted out an opinion without being involved from the beginning. To keep from sounding stupid, ask to join in and for a quick recap of the discussion - then opine away!! :-)

Sure it does, I know I'm not smart. How do you define smart? You are smart enough to use a computer and join this site. You are smart enough to present a cogent argument here. Don't allow others to tell you how smart you are, we are all important and useful. Don't be so hard on yourself, I'm sure you have many friends both here and in reality.
