| ::Indeed. But, there's also another personal point to it. If you never speak something others can claim is clearly your opinion, then it is far less likely that if you get into a content dispute or discussion that anyone can accuse you of pushing your own biases and POVs. For instance, in this case, people may start to wonder whether your content insertions are based off your opinion of Camping and are thus unbalancing the article. It's one of the reasons why (for instance in this article's talk page) I only leave premises that are citable - and on my own userpage, I choose not to list any religious or political affiliations I may or may not have, or my opinion on any religion, sexuality, politics, etc... though, admittedly, I do mention that I like bacon, Star Trek and Iron Maiden; but I suspect people won't presume those affect or bias me in the areas I edit. ;-) | |||

I make no secret of the fact that I'm an atheist and despise people like Camping, but I think there's enough verifiable information from reliable sources to prove clearly that the world isn't going to end any time in the next 5 billion years or thereabouts, which is why I see no need for WP to treat Camping's idiot "predictions" any differently from someone's hypothetical assertion that the moon is actually a sleeping armadillo called Keith - i.e. while the article should report accurately on what's being said, no weight needs to be given to the idea that any of it might actually happen.
