Today's Weather

Now I'm not trying to play devils advocate, but since I'm not a doctor, just some clarification....

I have looked at the sun in my life, but I don't think I have ever stared at the sun.  If someone were to take cursory glances at the eclipse, I'd assume this was safe.  [Normally there is nothing compelling to watch in order to stare, the eclipse being an exception].

Am I right, or is the sunlight peeking out from behind the sun more lethal than normal sunlight?

EDIT : As I typed I see ViewFromThe42 explained the difference.  Thanks!
