The content of the bible is Gods responsiablity. Following what we have been given and passing it along is all we have been asked to do.Hahaha... is that the best you could come up with? How can it be the word of god if it's inaccurate. Just like you can't serve two masters, it's either the word of god or it isn't.
Show me where or why the bible has to be inerrant. Show me one parable one teaching one anything that demands inerrancy in biblically based Christianity.

How does a perfect entity create an imperfect product? It indicates that the perfect entity was somehow incapable, or unknowing of how to do it, which only means it wasn't perfect to begin with.
I've said this before redemption is not only for the time we willfully sin, but when we are doing the best we can and still fall short. If we are given a bible that says to do X and God wants us to do Y then it is upto God to forgive X or change the X we have to Y. As with a Dead Sea scroll find.
