If you go to him with the intention of not offending him, he is almost certain to pick up on that. Don't let your guilt over having an opinion of your own get in the way of telling your father what you think, if that's what you want to do. An opinion isn't a knife, it can't hurt anyone except someone that insists on using it to hurt themselves. That is their responsibility. Remember, his opinion isn't a knife either, and can't hurt you unless you hurt yourself. I know how hard it is to talk to your parents and get them to listen. You just have to be sure of your opinion and not get defensive. They can't fight you if you don't fight back.
