My point is that mistakes like that suggest human hands, and not a divinely inspired work that you would believe was above such mistakes.
You believe in God because of rational/philosophical reasons as well as reasons from your own subjective spiritual experience, you can attain this through prayer as the Bible outlines. You can't do that with Kushiel's Legacy series. Human hands did write the Bible but that doesn't mean that they weren't being inspired and motivated by God to write it.
Come all ye faithful joyful and triumphant.
