The point he's making is not nearly as complicated as you imagine. He explicitly says:

<<"I'm not trying to persuade you of a particular religious point of view; I'm trying to get you to think of ultimate issues and ultimate questions in a particular way.">>

"Perspective is bound, at least in part, on bias. He concludes his perspective or some related perspective must be true, and on the basis of mutual exclusivity must then render other perspectives to be false."

So you seem to want to argue that logically contradictory and mutually exclusive statements can both be true. Is that correct? I would love to see you explain that.

"He further implies a very general statement regarding Jesus covers the absolute truth of the matter."

No that's not the point at all. In fact he quite clearly states that: "One of us must be wrong, at bare minimum. Maybe we both are. But one thing that we can never say is that we're both right."
