What would you be surprised to learn that you're wrong about?

Let’s face it – we all have opinions on some issue that we’re near positive or positive that we’re right about. But in the end, who knows?

Let’s put it to the test – give us the thing that you think you’re right about, and look to see if there’s something that someone thinks they’re right on that you’re pretty sure their partially or completely wrong. A couple ground rules, if at all possible:

(1) It should be something that can probably be shown to be right or wrong – there must be some observable evidence for or against it or such evidence is likely to exist in the near future (e.g., “there is a god/there is no god” doesn’t really work).

(2) If you’re disagreeing with something posted, posting a response should include links to information showing why you disagree if at all possible.

Here’s mine: I firmly believe that the criminalization of certain drugs creates exponentially greater harms than the regulation of the sale of those drugs and treatment of addicts would.

Let’s see how it goes.
