The point being, that disagreements, do not mean that it is subjective by nature, or that there isn't any truth.   I would think that pointing to disagreements within the theory of evolution, to mean that evolution was false, to be a pretty weak argument.  At best, you can evaluate the different claims based on the evidence, and possibly say that the claim in question isn't as clear as perhaps thought.  But to use it as a argument against the whole, I don't think is very good.

Nice double talk. Pulls the "everything" foot out of his mouth. 

"Everything is subjective" I don't hear from to many christians.

Are you disagreeing with what I explained or agreeing?  

In the end, even if I mis-spoke, or I'm changing my view; it doesn't matter in the overall picture of the discussion, and the idea. I have no problem agreeing with people, or conceding when they make a good point. I've mentioned points similar to what you are commenting on before in discussions about objective morality.

On the other hand, I could have chosen my words carefully, to encourage discussion or find a common point of agreement.  I could just be seeing how people choose to react.
