I.e - when two or more people independently read a passage in the bible, they conclude the meaning of the passage in much the same way - like a street directory if you like.
This clearly doesn't happen.
I am beginning to agree with you that it cannot exist due to the nature of the text.
I find it happens all the time among believers. We tend to get the same thing out of any given Bible passage. I've often read a passage and later heard (or read) it preached on, and the preaching agrees with what I understood on my own reading. It's probably a matter of whether you are a believer or not, but of course it isn't always true that believers agree either -- just that most of the time I've found that we do.
