Sure, and I'm not saying it is. There is only objective reality. Doesn't mean that people can't have personal opinions and views (such as what the meaning of life is) though.

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.
