And yes - I do believe that the Bible is authoritative because it's the word of God.
There are actually a lot of other smart books written, on morals, life, history etc.
But neither of them carries the same authority as the Bible. And the Bible is unique in this regard as it is the ONLY authority for a Christian.
Once you choose books based on what you deem good or correct and not on their source - you can have multiple authorities. Not a single, trustworthy authority.
