Instead of calling it an oxymoron like “subjective truth” just call it an opinion.

Yeah, that's what it is. I don't think I used this phrase.

Yes, but you meant that thinking there is a purpose is the same thing as there really being a purpose. If everyone can feel there is a purpose and they all contradict each other, there is none.

Not really :) I'm an atheist and there's no purpose from my point of view. Was just trying to explain how I see it when other people say whatever about their subjective meaning of life. The meaning of life is just a thought in your head.

If the purpose of life is a matter of opinion, it is not a matter of truth. If it is not a matter of truth, then there is no true purpose of life.

Yeah, pretty much.
