Examination No. 4 Question #4

Paine asserts the following with reference to scripture: "...agreement of all the parts of a story does not prove that story to be true, because the parts may agree and the whole story may be false; - secondly, disagreement of the parts of a story proves that the whole argument cannot be true. The agreement does not prove the truth, but the disagreement proves falsehood positively." Respond along the lines of Bishop Richard Watson.
