Is this not the best of all possible worlds?

The Don Quixote analogy is pretty fair, but I tend more to think of the 
subject along religious lines.

-All involved are seeking truth.
-All involved see truth from their own perspective. (what other way is there?)
-All believe their truth is truer than others. (if it weren't, why hold it?)
-Some believe their truth is the _only_ truth.
-Some believe their truth is the _only_ truth and will do all they can to 
minimalize and discredit all others.
-Some believe that truth is revealed in more than one way and will 
peacefully coexist with those whose truth is different than theirs.

Credo ergo sum.
