Also, I never said Revelations was a bunch of crap. Please read carefully as not to misrepresent my beliefs.
Ummm...you do realize that many people believe that EXACT thing about the bible, right? If god protects the church's proclamations, why wouldn't he also protect the bible? If he doesn't protect the bible and only inspires it, what makes you think he offers that protection for your doctrines?
Also, stay consistent please. One moment you're distancing yourself from revelation, the next you're back-pedaling toward it. If you only believe that some small part is valid, that still concedes that the rest is basically junk.
By the way, have you noticed that the more we learn about science, the more scripture is viewed as metaphor? It's almost as if every time we learn something new it shits on the bible. Why would this happen?
Also, how can Catholics believe the bible is inerrant when it contains so many scientific and historical errors?
Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42)
