(I want to just leave "Yes." here but that's mean.)

No - provability is a different concept from faith, which does not

Nope, was just pointing out social conditioning to assume there is no 
form of objective truth, thus we all have equally valid opinions 
(unless a taboo line is breached; a fundamental paradox of that 
viewpoint).
