Certainly You Have a Right to Be Wrong
By Elton Camp
Too bad some aren’t a know-it-all like me
It’d keep them from many an error free
Folks should be careful with things they say
Lest such gross ignorance their words betray
A statement that’s not supported by fact
Will by others, most rightly, be attacked
“But it’s my opinion,” they will say
As if error becomes truth in that way
Truth is how some matter actually is
A concept not needing a mental whiz
No matter how sincerely one believes a lie
In the bright light of logic, the error will die
So be careful of any position that you take
Few but me will never make a mistake
