I would say the Bible is objective truth, however, people believe it is subjective and not objective.And if someone declares something is true, they should be able to demonstrate this truth, objectively. If they cant, it is personal opinion.
So, I could declare Christianity is objective truth and demonstate it by referencing the Bible. If a person is in a state of unreality and does not accept the Bible as objective and not a book cobbled together by a bunch of disparate Jews in ancient times, it doesn't much matter if I tell you the truth or not.
People who tried out for American Idol and sing atrociously can be told by four judges, laughed at by millions of viewers, and still believe they are good singers. Even though the consensus is that the person is not a good singer. I think even if their singing was analyzed note by note and the person was shown that they did not sing the correct notes, they are so invested in their unreality, it would not matter.
People very often question the objectivity of things. Which is good, it should be questioned- it should be tried.
