An opinion is an evaluation of the facts - in the form of abstract ideas; categorizing abstract ideas

A fact describes the effects and relationship between measureable variables

Off topic:

Sometimes I think of why someone would want to ruin something so good - factual informtion and caring to understand - I often think to myself that religious people aren't humans and should not be treated or given respect as such.

keywords/phrases: good is bad and bad is good moral practical guidicace, the desire to live, should need, 

Some words don't exist if you don't respect them, and their definitions - for example, good and bad only exist in the mind as concepts comprehended due to bad definitions, these defintions don't describe the limits of nature, rather is a form of comprehending an opinionated idea - not a scientific theory as treated as such.

Treating morality as a fact is like a person saying "I am not lying" right after they lied via verbatim thus breaking trust between said party members - the point is, behaviors speak louder than words.

opinions are not observations, rather reaction (taking personally) to presence of certain things via conditioning.

Recognizing non-specific entities, such as people, is an example of respect - respect in principle is not an opinion as it is a theoritical set of criteria waiting to be discovered and learned - however, performing the act of respecting someone is an example of an opinion as it implies that a person wants to do this and not identify a factual piece of information.

    A clear example of this is as is: Death Row inmates sometimes escape - their minds and thought processes we cannot comprehend - and therefore prove the theroy of death row inmates wrong as they proved it wrong via their behavior and not just their actions. The very fact that we have to put in work to contorl them is an example of an illusion - the illusion of "direct" control. Thus, pointing to the fact that moraliy is not universal and rather is a form of universalism.

The usage of the death penalty was okay and reasonable for it's time.

Defining "Facts"

facts are how a variable and it's relationship to another varibale effects your body, your senses.

Facts answer the how, opinions answer the "what" - the contents of the video.

Facts are a way of evaluating, a formula, an attitude.
