Because the way I see it, either God told one of the writers it was His word, or it was a collective belief by all the writers for it to truly be the inspired word of God. Regardless, if a writer was told it was in fact God's word, has anyone else been spoken to by God since then? If it is a collective belief (on the assumption that it is indeed an inspired collection) why is it impossible to have inspired writings today, i.e. adding to the Bible?
All I'm saying is, the argument that the Bible is divinely inspired, and we know this because the Bible says so, epitomizes the idea of a circular argument.
