The fact that a bullshit argument happens to point towards the god of this particular scripture?If you mean by what metric, after transcendental monotheism is taken to be sound on the grounds of this or another argument, you would weigh it up according to theistic principles, and a theistic viewpoint of history, in which revelation is possible. And in that perspective, the bible records a perfectly consistent and true revelation of that God. Besides, the TAG doesn't exist without the Christian scriptures or Christian belief, because the TAG is fundamentally a comparison of the intrinsic coherence of a Christian worldview and epistemic structure as contradistinguished with an atheist one.
Blah blah blah. A whole lot of fancy words but once again, assertions and circular reasoning. *yawn*
