A comment on Earth’s magnetic field illuminates Biblical history. Parent comment
In order to derive meaning from your statement, I think it's logically necessary to imagine a counterfactual where it doesn't form a coherent whole.
If you think the Bible is coherent, can you explain what it would be like if it were incoherent?
I'm putting it this way because I think it's probably useless to try to argue directly whether it's coherent.
