So? Ill tell you what. I will cut and paste the statement once more. Read it carefully.

"an opinion can be a subjective truth, but all subjective truths are not mere opinions."

Yes, we understand what you are saying.

There is a set of things called "subjective truths". Within this set is a subset of things called "opinions."

Behold this diagram.

You are saying that "Opinions", the blue set, are within the red set of "subjective truths", so that opinions are a type of subjective truth. However, you are also saying that there are subjective truths that are within the red area and NOT within the blue area. These would be subjective truths which are NOT opinions.

We understand that perfectly well.

We are asking you to provide an example of a statement that, if placed within the above diagram, would be in the red section but NOT within the blue section.

Can you provide an example of such a statement?
