I used to wonder why opinions differ between persons? Why all the people do not have the same opinion? What is sin according to one is merit according to another and what is right according to one is wrong according to another? Why?

Opinions differ because human beings are different from each other. Human beings are unique. It is just like all of us are different to look at. One person's physical appearance is different from the other person's physical appearance, one person's voice is different from the other person's voice.

Our opinions differ because the experiences that have shaped who we are have differed. We've all grown up, we've all been five years old, ten years old, (etc.); however, what we did to get to where we are differs from person to person. There are biases created from people we feel have either wronged us or greatly rewarded us; these biases tend to pass down from generation to generation, some sticking and some being effected by, yet again, the person's own experiences.

Good day, cudamani. Well, opinions differ because of many factors. All of us have different opinions because we are not born in the same place, with the same religion and with the same culture. Those factors influence a person to have own opinions. And since we don't have the same beliefs and opinions, it sometimes leads to arguments because a person wants to prove that he/she is right and the others are wrong. Debate is held to defend whose opinions seem to be right. But we must respect the opinions of each other. This is my view regarding your discussion, happy mylotting...

well,it is easy to know that different people live in different places ,receive different education,meet diferent people,get different information.therefore people
own different senses of worth which control them to say and do what they think is right.

Well, I think that opinions differ between people because every person has different beliefs and perspectives towards life. But we don't differ opinions on all things, just on some that are too complex and sophisticated to discuss. But I think every opinion is correct because even though it differs from other opinions because we know what's right and wrong and we won't do anything that's wrong, unless we're out of our minds.

because everyone is different, has different thoughts, belifes and whatever else. if everyone would be the same, think the same, belive in the same how boring it would be. but so many cant or wont except the fact everyone is different and think everyone should be like them, and this is why fights and wars get started
