The day I accept that there is only one Ultimate Truth, is the day <put your
favorite "when hell freezes over" phrase here>.

The mere fact that other religions besides Christianity exist points to
multiple Ultimate Truths, since for everyone the Ultimate Truth will be
different.  The PenUltimate Truth, maybe, but all this talk of "I'm right,
you're wrong" regarding personal beliefs in Life, The Universe, And Everything
is kinda moot.
