Dropping Knowledge could be considered as Yahoo Answers for the rest of us. You won't find any questions about where to find genuine Ugg boots or whether work-at-home schemes are real, here, though you may well find one about the ethics of using sheepskin or the morality of capitalism. This is a site dedicated to serious questions and answers on subjects of global concern, and it takes itself and its members very seriously. As an international forum it demands that contributors respect the cultural and ethical differences from one country and one society to another, and no messing around or trying to sell fake Jordans is permitted. That in itself is unusual enough.

However, although the the theme is the distribution of knowledge, from those that wish to share to those that wish to know, there are multiple topics and individual questions here that demand opinion, rather than fact. In that sense the title is misleading, since you don't have to be ignorant or studied to contribute here.

Everyone has opinions, though it's true we don't always have time to consider the infinite enigmas of the universe when our minds are drawn down to the more mundane level of everyday life. Still, you might have more to offer to a serious conversation than you think: it may just be that people don't often ask you whether you think animals have souls or why God allows sexual abuse, but I'll bet you do have an opinion if you stop to consider it.

You also stand a good chance of holding the opinion that the whole thing is pretentious and boring, which may be a truth, but as at least one member here observes, ultimate truth may or may not exist anyway. What do you think?
