And isn't that how almost every religious denomination sees itself?

"It speaks the most truth of any other bible interpretation. All other opinions are wrong." describes exactly what most religions are and why people are resistive to proselytizing.

Protestants believe their interpretation of the Bible is the most correct, Mormons believe their interpretation of the Bible is the most correct, Adventists believe their interpretation of the Bible is most correct, Jehovah's Witness' believe their interpretation of the Bible is the most correct, Catholics believe their interpretation of the Bible is the most correct, Sunni's believe their interpretation of the Koran is the most correct, Shiias believe their interpretation of the Koran is most correct, Theravada Buddhists believe their interpreation of Buddha's teachings are most correct, Mahayana Buddists believe their interpretion of Buddha's teachings are most correct etc.

Westboro Baptists believe their interpretation of the Bible is the most correct, the Taliban believes their interpretation of the Koran is most correct...

In almost all those cases, most of the above also believe that "all other opinions are wrong" and their anger at the other sects leads to schisms and sometimes violence.

People here are only offering their personal opinions and beliefs. Everybody is free to voice theirs or offer a defense or argument for or against other opinions and beliefs.
