No, it’s the infallibility of God’s revealed word. Did you look up the appeal to ridicule?

Yup.

I’d be more than happy to. Anti-Biblical conceptual schemes and views of reality can always be reduced to absurdity; only the Biblical conceptual scheme and view of reality is logically cogent and consistent. That alone would prove that scripture is infallible. That’s not the only proof though; since the Biblical view of reality has elements in it that even atheists agree are true, we can therefore know that the entire conceptual scheme must also be true since it is logically consistent. Therefore, we know again that scripture has to be the infallible word of God and we are justified in using it to test the merit of all other truth claims.
