  1. opinion

    Belief, as an intellectual process, is the acceptance of some thing as true on other grounds than personal observation and experience. We give credence to a report, assent to a proposition or to a proposal. Belief is stronger than credence; credence might be described as a prima facie belief; credence is a more formal word than belief, and seems to imply somewhat more of volition; we speak of giving credence to a report, but not of giving belief. Goods are sold on credit; we give one credit for good intentions. Conviction is a belief established by argument or evidence; assurance is belief beyond the reach of argument; as, the Christian's assurance of salvation. An opinion is a general conclusion held as probable, tho without full certainty; a persuasion is a more confident opinion, involving the heart as well as the intellect. In religion, a doctrine is a statement of belief regarding a single point; a creed is a summary statement of doctrines. Confidence is a firm dependence upon a statement as true, or upon a person as worthy. Reliance is confidence on which we act or are ready to act unquestioningly; we have a calm reliance upon the uniformity of nature. Trust is a practical and tranquil resting of the mind upon the integrity, kindness, friendship, or promises of a person; we have trust in God. Faith is a union of belief and trust. Faith is chiefly personal; belief may be quite impersonal; we speak of belief of a proposition, faith in a promise, because the promise emanates from a person. But belief in a person is often used with no appreciable difference from faith. In religion it is common to distinguish between intellectual belief of religious truth, as any other truth might be believed, and belief of the heart, or saving faith.

How to use opinion in a sentence?

  1. Carl Tobias:

    The Alabama Supreme Court ruling directly conflicts with the federal district court opinion in ways that have not happened in other states where district judges have struck down bans.

  2. Dave Walker:

    I used to anchor at CNN, and now I just yell at CNN, i think originally,it was pretty much 99 percent news content… as cable news evolved and more competition came into the fray,you had more opinion, particularly in the evening hours.And I would say that’s the major difference now. But maybe with the new ownership that may revert to more just basic news coverage.

  3. Chief Dodd:

    We want it down as much as anyone for the family and it may be harmful to otherkids. We contacted some of the sites. They asked if they had to take it down and by law they don’t. But it’s just the common decent thing to do in my opinion.

  4. Jamie Silvonek:

    I was a monster, there is no sugarcoating it and there is absolutely no sympathy. There’s no mitigating factors. In my opinion, there’s absolutely nothing.

  5. Thomas Carlyle:

    Popular opinion is the greatest lie in the world.
