This is all wonderfully said until applied to real-life situations and then it becomes horribly, horribly messy. Hypothetical discussions of salvation and theology only go so far because they are in black & white terms. Our world is grey.
Your view of truth is different from mine. No matter how much we try, we will never view the same truth because we live different lives and see from different perspectives. Apply that concept to 7 billion + people in this world and things get complicated. Everybody is saying exactly the same thing as you- they all say their truth is better than everyone else’s. Clearly this is impossible, so some people must have the real truth. But is it fair if the people who have the real truth were born into a culture which already views the real truth as real truth?

Hun, I took sociology, anthropology, and world religions, your saying there are so many different people and different individual experiences but that does’t go against the idea that there can be one clear truth.
