Opinions

It is quite amazing to think that a species that is made so similar, can be so different in more ways than one. 

The Human race is all built the same. Same limbs, same emotions, same organs, lots of it is the same.

However,e humans aren't the same. Our noses are different, our eye color is different, our height is different, our skin color is different, and most importantly,

Our opinions are different.

oh, sure, some people may share the same opinions, but maybe they don't share the same reason for supporting those opinions. And what's more,

We get defensive about them as well.

"oh, you don't like chocolate? How can you not like chocolate? chocolate, is like, the best thing in the world!!!" example one. Not being able to accept their opinion on something and trying to persuade them to like yours. It doesn't work very well, but we still do it.

For a personal example, I have many close friends who don't like cats.

I own four cats.

Now, when i first told them i have cats, they all reacted the same; That look on their face of "Oh come on, seriously? cats?" and them hastily explaining why they don't like cats.

However, i assured them that most likely the only reason they don't like cats os becasue they don't know hwo to act around them. Then i told them that my cats are trained not to bite, hiss scratch, or do anything to harm or scare people. They weren't very assured, but when they finally came over, I introduced them to Desmond, my 7 year old farm tabby cat. He's quite fat, but he is also the nicest cat you'll ever meet.

You literally could pull him around by his tail on a wood floor and he won't do anything to stop you. He is basically a teddy bear. 

So, when my hesitant friends met him, they instantly fell in love with him. I've convinced them to even kiss him on the nose. 

Now, i tried to persuade them to believe that cats are awesome, and even though i put up four good cases, they still say, "I only like you're cats.... all the other ones are mean."

So, that goes to show that you can try to persuade others to believe your opinion, and you can even have flawless evidence, but they still will probably stick to their own opinion.
