WHAT IS OPINION AND THOUGHT ?

opinion and thoughts are rather different in their definition. Opinion is basically a statement about what you have in mind about something, either agree or disagree, pro or con and so on. Thoughts are actually ideas or what you think about something. It can be an opinion, solution, critics etc.

Agreeing with an Opinion
  • Of course.
  • This is absolutely right.
  • I agree with this opinion.
  • I couldn't agree more.
  • I agree with what you are saying.
  • I agree, I never thought of that.
  • Neither do I.
  • That's a good point.
  • I think so too.
Disagreeing with an opinion

WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCES ?

Paul Trejo California State University : If we consider the lowest level, then we speak of a “random thought” and a “frivolous opinion.” In such a case, there is little or no difference between these terms.

If we consider a higher level, then we can speak of an “inventive thought” and a “medical opinion.” In such a case, the difference is one of quality. Both have a high level of value — the first could result in a new invention to help millions. The second might save a life — or even millions of lives. The difference is qualitative, although both have a high value at this level.

If we consider the highest level, then we speak of Philosophical Thought and Legal Opinion. In this case, the difference is profound. Philosophical Thought (e.g. Plato, Aristotle, Anselm, Descartes, Hobbes, Spinoza, Locke, Leibniz, Hume, Kant, Hegel) has the capability of changing the whole world for thousands and perhaps millions of years. A Legal Opinion, by contrast, has a temporal application at most — even if it affects an entire nation for centuries.

For Hegel, “Philosophy is not about Opinion, or the Spinning out of Opinions.” Philosophical Thought is always Systematic. In his History of Philosophy (1830) Hegel excluded any writer who neglected the method of System. (All the philosophers I named above were Systematic as well as Encyclopedic. Their Thought was Universal.)


EXAMPLE :

Raisa : Hey, Ridwan!

Ridwan: Hey. What’s up?

Raisa: If i recall it correctly, it’s been 3 months since you moved to Yogyakarta from Jakarta, right?

Ridwan : Yes, you’re right.

Raisa : I’m collecting data for my research, It’s about Jakarta and Yogyakarta. Can i have your opinion?

Ridwan: Sure

Raisa: Alright, What do you think about Yogyakarta? Do you like it?

Ridwan : If i compare it to Jakarta. I think Yogyakarta is much better than Jakarta. I can’t bear the traffic jam in Jakarta. Yogyakarta also has traffic jam but its traffic jam is better than Jakarta.

Raisa: Really?

Ridwan : yeah, you can feel the traffic jam all day in Jakarta, but in Yogyakarta, the traffic jam is during specific time only.

Raisa: Oh i see, anything else?

Ridwan : Oh, I think the food in Yogyakarta is also tasty despite of its affordable price, things in Jakarta are more expensive. The shops here are quite complete, i can find anything i look for. But Jakarta is more complete, of course. Personally, I like Yogyakarta more than Jakarta.

Raisa: Wow, i’m glad to hear that you enjoy living here.

Ridwan: Yeah, i was afraid at first. But, Yogyakarta is not as bad as i think.

Raisa: Well, i think that’s all i want to ask. Thank your for you time.

Ridwan: No problem.
