Everything is subjective for someone. Sun is stationary and it is earth 
that moves around that but still we all humans say "sun is rising" and 
"sun is setting" because that's what we see happening with our own eyes 
while we don't feel the movement of our own earth.

Thus, when someone says something, it is always his personal opinion, 
whether he explicitly mentions this disclaimer or not.

Still, if we believe that we are and claim to be behaving in a civilized 
manner, we have to listen and think over what others are saying, even if 
that is a minority of one. We should not just go on speaking endlessly 
same and same things. This is a list (any list is) of learned persons 
and is not an echo point where one can expect and demand that whatever 
you are saying will be echoed back by other persons.

All this "you have your opinions and I have mine.  You have your ears 
and I have mine." is a very irresponsible sort of behavior, I feel. It 
is like shrugging away the responsibility for what one has written. One 
wrote something and when somebody else doesn't agree with that, the 
original writer saying that he doesn't bother about what others might 
say, is not a civilized way of communication. Here we are to interact. 
If we have just to express ourselves, we can do in the seclusion of our 
room . Here we are writing to a group of 15000 living 
humans and they read what we write and they get opinions about that. And 
when they reply, are we entitled to say that I don't care for what you 
thought on what I wrote.

We have to be ready to discuss, explain, talk about what we wrote 
earlier. We are obliged to read the replies on our posts, we are bound 
to answer queries and acknowledge differences of opinion on our mails.

Anyone not doing this is believing that here he has got a captive 
audience on which he can practice his writing skills and review skills 
and analysing skills without taking any responsibility of it.
