how do you answer it, except with ridicule and ludicrous examples of facts which may or may not be real or just MIGHT be a point of view. Are we really bombing baghdad to smithereens right now, or is that just my opinion?

Beats me how you answer it. You're probably not supposed to answer it.

I guess they got tired of being beaten in rational argument and this garbage is what they hide behind. This way, they can at least break even every time if everything's just a matter of opinion. I don't know what they'd say if you asked them why on earth their puerile opinions should run everyone's lives. (Another reason maximized individual freedom's such a good thing, it helps prevent us being controlled by others' opinions).
