What basis do you have for saying it's true?  You're going about it back assward, just like most believers.  Basing truth on continuity in books that we have no originals of shows that truth is not what you're after.

You're mistaken, we're not discussing whether or not you belive the scriptures to be true, or whether Harry Potter is true, we're discussing what is canon and what isnt.

Got it?

You said any doctrine that matches up with scripture must be true.
