Of course you are supposed to express your opinion! I, along with every other member of TFP (I hope), welcome diverse viewpoints. It just so happens that I think your opinion on this subject is quite wrong. I've listed my reasons above. If, on the other hand, you persist in thinking it is I who am mistaken, please tell me why.

The peculiar evil of silencing the expression of an opinion is, that it is robbing the human race; posterity as well as the existing generation; those who dissent from the opinion, still more than those who hold it. If the opinion is right, they are deprived of the opportunity of exchanging error for truth: if wrong, they lose, what is almost as great a benefit, the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by its collision with error. ~John Stuart Mill, On Liberty
