I never said that everything in the Bible is true. It has quite obviously been corrupted by men in several places, but everything that needs to be there is there.
Why would God allow it to be corrupted? For one, so people who idolize the Bible can be put in their place. Two, so people can point to the inconsistencies as proof that it is all false.
People might say, "God wouldn't lie." To that I say true, but God doesn't have to; Satan does it for Him. Why else would He create Satan, who deceives the whole world?
