Objective truth would not be persuaded by authority figures, but rather dictated by nature. And while we may never achieve 100% truth during the human experience, the goal is to be as close to the truth as possible.
Or... is truth subjective. And we determine how sure we are via confidence levels. Truth is persuaded by authority figures, and dictaded as such.

Not making a claim just yet, although it should be obvious what the answer is. What are your opinions?
If the answer is no, isn't that an objective answer?
Yes, there is objective truth.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
