Im sorry Im not following you. What is an opinion that is based on current evidence?
Well there was a time when people thought that that there were dog headed people living in india. That was their opinion based on rumours by people who had allegedly "witnessed" these imaginary beings, but as we know witness testimony is notoriously unreliable and what happened was that people actually went to india and found that there were in fact no dog headed people there, so their opinion changed to no longer believing in dog heads. It was an opinion that had changed due to new information.
People used to think that radiation was good for you when it was first discovered because energy=good for you and they sold irradiated water and food to give you vitality. That was their "opinion" but it changed when it was discovered that it was immensely bad for you.
I could go on if you like I have like a hundred examples of this.
