What do you think of the statement "We're all subjectively searching for an objective truth"?

Thoughts on the statement? Do you agree/disagree?

Update:

@Dan, do the religious not believe that there are many paths to god, is god not an objective truth in the eyes of the religious, i can argue that its a religious statement, but my intention was for it to apply to most, if not, all people.

    generaly speaking yes. Many are resorting to discovering their own truths now though. It avoids much of the conflicts caused by each individuals POV.

    And it rotates ''each to his own''. Which is good and promotes individuality.

    The majority though, still searches for that one truth to apply to us all.

    It's an atheist statement. They will forever be searching for a tree in the forest.
