Aren't all books unique? Sure the Bible's unique, but it's not accurate.

That would be only if you didn’t accept John’s and Matthew’s account
This sounds more like “I just don’t accept the first hand accounts, the Gospel of Luke also spoke to the eye-witnesses and the relegating the testimony of Paul as “i don’t care if you persecuted the church and now you preach the resurrection"
I believe Rome was a neighboring nation. Tacitus had something about Jesus.
By-and-large… yes. That isn’t to say there aren’t some areas that can be viewed differently, but by-and-large, yes. Most are black and white and not an argument.

Try an academic source instead of biblical apologetic propaganda.Camels in Genesis are Right Where They Belong
Archaeological and historical articles and media dealing with the veracity and reliability of the Patriarchal narratives found in Genesis, chapters 10-50.biblearchaeology.org

Every book is unique.
As a holy book, it is not as unique as you would like it to be.
Having said that, it matters not anyway.
"Unique" is not synonymous with "true".
So I don't really get what point you think you are making.
For the sake of argument, let's just say the bible is as unique as you claim it to be.
Now what? Does that make it true? No, it does not.

Just because a book is unique, doesn’t mean it’s true.
The Bible is unique and in a class all its own for the reasons I posted for a while now.
The Bible is also true, the stories and accounts have been verified by archeology, manuscripts found in the caves called Dead Sea Scrolls etc.
The Bible or Word of God is living and active, when people read it to know and seek God, He speaks to them through it, The Word of God is a lamp to your feet and light to your path.
I’ve shared enough of this with you and appreciate the conversation so this will be the last post with you, thanks

Cool, then I suggest you lay that argument to rest then...
And by that same measure, such would be true for most if not all books.
But more importantly: it matters not as per your own admission above.
So why keep on going on about it?
As per your own admission, it doesn't make it true. It doesn't make it any more credible. So it mattes not.
Continuing to argue this is thus just a waste of time and webspace.
It demonstrably isn't
Some of them. Others have been demonstrated to be pure fiction.
Preaching. A muslims could (and would) say the same or similar about the Quran.
All you are telling us, is that you really believe it. We know.

As I keep saying, I'm trying to figure out why you think 1) The Bible is unique, and 2) How and what uniqueness has to do with truth.
Apparently, it doesn't look like I'm ever going to get to know what you mean.

You're wrong. Stop deflecting. I even quoted the parts of your posts I'm talking about.
Perhaps you don't read stuff.

anything used in opposition to the truth of the Bible is not proved to be accurate.

Has been rebutted by another poster with the exact same rebuttal I would have provided.
What would convince you that a claim was untrue? If you say "nothing," you've turned off your intellect and are not qualified to make any truth-judgements all.

But not uniquely inaccurate.
