So I guess all the contradictions and the gospels not being able to get the story right are....NOT errors? ._.

We would have to go through these "contradictions" on a case by case basis. Whole books have been written to demonstrate that what appears to be a contradiction may not actually be a contradiction.

Some survivors of the Titanic said that the ship broke in two. Other survivors said it did not. Is that a contradiction? And does it really make much of a difference when the big picture is that Jesus rose from the dead...I mean, that the Titanic actually sank?

^Exactly this. The big picture, guys!  Shy
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
