Responses

1. Uniqueness does not have any bearing on the truth or accuracy of its contents.
2. Uniqueness can be good or bad; the value of uniqueness depends on the effects that the unique traits and history have on the world.
3. The "unique" properties of the Bible do not change the fact that it was never intended to be used as a scientific textbook.
