Are we all equal?

"They think that their right to hold thier own opinion somehow makes all opinions equal." This is an American trait. I know that this makes me seem like i am beating on Americans, but we are not the only democracy in the world, and yet we are usually the ones who take the "I have a right...." to the extreme. As priviledged Americans we think we are right..... about everything. Probably the whole superiority complex. I am bigger and better than you, therefore I am right. Or is it that we are just too lazy to critically think our opinions?

Overall, I think that this idea that we all think our opinions are correct, is normal. Otherwise why would we think them? A reasonably intelligent sane person would only believe correct theories right? Or what we would think were right. I don't think the fault is believing the opinions are true, I think the fault lies in that we are not open to hear claims which may debunk our opinions.
