people just swallow the information that's given, and believe the evidences.

people have different views and opinions regarding this topic

people tend to look at what they see more than what's being told about it
morality depends on what one believes about it
people look up to higher gureheads on what to believe in and what to do

Whydo you thinkthereis no OPINIONin Part Three?

I think that there's no part labeled opinion in Part Three because as seen on the outcome (minus social sciences), there really tends to be a side that one person would rely on more, whether it be authority, or evidences.
