but it explains why Christians accept Scripture as more than simply the writings of men.
They are taking the word of men that it is the word of God. And there's the weak link in the chain. There are about 4000 recognized religions. Each one with many fervent believers totally convinced their particular brand is the one and only divine truth. Yet since there can only be one truth simple logic dictates that 3999 of them have to be dead wrong. Thus proving that fervent belief is proof of absolutely nothing. And if 3999 are wrong despite such strong belief then it's no great stretch that all 4000 are wrong. Especially since none of them possess any greater evidence than the others.
