You do recognize this as tautology, don't you?

"What the book says is true because the book says it is true."

Do you ordinarily accept this level of "proof" ? If so, there's
a bridge I'd like to sell you.

You do know that I'm not going to let you have it both ways, don't you?

You started the discussion with a quote from the Book. If you can quote the
Book to argue your side of the issue, I can quote the Book to argue my side
of the issue. If you don't recognize the book as an authority, leave it out
of the discussion.
