You are getting an intellectually honest answer.  Magic book really is why people believe in magic book.  It's just that, for all it's honesty, it isn't all that intellectual.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

No, actually.  It’s a non-starter and a logical fallacy.  Logically speaking, it is fallacious to reference the Bible as evidence or reason for the truth of the Bible.  Thanks for playing though. Maybe some day I’ll get an intellectually honest answer to my question, but I’m not holding my breath.

The Bible is the beginning of my reasoning. There's nothing dishonest about that.
If you want to know how I think - start there.

Nope still circular

The bible is not a valid axiom. So this attempt at presup nonsense fails .

The bible is dishonest for starters. There is no reasoning to be found therein. If you start there then you are not reasoning. At all.

If the Bible is the beginning of your reasoning, then your reasoning is fundamentally flawed, and I don’t have a whole lot more to say to you.  Long live Harry Potter!

That's pathetic. To use one of the most flawed, illogical, ridiculous pieces of literature ever written as the base of your entire existence?  You would be better off as an obsessed Trekkie, getting therapy to convince yourself that you can actually go out in public without first putting on a Trek uniform and Vulcan ear-pieces.

It's only a circular argument if it is false.

That's what a lot of people are hoping.

I am surprised how long it took you to conclude that I am flawed in my reasoning.

Your response is typical of someone who has either turned their back on God, or has a scant hearsay knowledge of the Bible, and has never really studied it in earnest.
I'm thinking the latter applies.
