...why should modern Christians favor Bible literalism and inerrancy?
Jesus teachings show a progressive view of Jewish law. (O ye hypocrites, sabbath was made for man, refutation fo purity laws, going against Moses's teaching on divorce, thinking for one's self, "You have heard it said ___________, but truly I say to you ____________" etc...) He clearly was into the Bible, but he was not a literalist and favored common sense when applying the scriptures.
If Jesus favored a, for lack of a better term, practical exegesis, why shouldn't modern Christians favor the same?
