So, to answer your question, the 'correct answer' is the Truth. :)
I am so glad you said this ! u/simon_says recently created a beautiful analogy in his Series II which proves exactly the opposite.
Sometimes, you could have two different understanding of the same reality can are both internally consistent and externally consistent and yet completely opposite to each other. Both are "Truths" and both are entirely valid.
My interpretation of this is that Truth in its entirety is unknowable. You can make approximations and get closer to the Truth, or focus on that aspect of the truth thats applicable for the circumstances we would like to understand.
Not understanding this could be one of the causes of deep human problems.
C.S. Lewis uses the analogy of arithmetic when comparing religions.
Using arithmetic to compare religions is oversimplifying, to put it mildly. It would probably serve the ulterior purpose of getting everything to believe they know the "Truth" and their answer is the only answer, and hence further the Human misery.
I havent done much digging into C.S.Lewis and I am not sure where he stands in the Cabal scheme of things, but with this description I find him suspect.
But how do you know which answer is the correct answer?

The truth is the answer which actually works.
And it's totally knowable....
Yes. Why has the DS got such a down on Christianity?
This is exactly what most liberals believe, because "which actually works" is relative.
