It is possible to respect another's viewpoint and dialogue in a fruitful and intelligent manner, without taking a position of advocating a pluralist universalism or subjective "truth".
I think the core issue is self-education. Individuals should honestly research the claims of a belief system and form a conclusion of their own. Unfortunately, so many look to past examples of hypocricy and those who falsely profess something that their lives and behavior denied.
When i share my faith in Christ with someone else and explain how they can come to know the same living savior... I do so in a respectful and loving manner - at least I try to. This was the example that Christ gave. He loved people unto himself. And everyone who encountered him would have to make a decision about what they would do with him. He was polarizing. He still is today.
