When we say that the Bible is inspired, we are saying it is inspired in the original documents. "Inspiredness is not a quality attaching to corruptions which intrude in the course of the transmission of the text, but only to the text as originally produced by the inspired writers. The acknowledgment of biblical inspiration thus makes more urgent the task of meticulous textual criticism, in order to eliminate such corruptions and ascertain what that original text was."1 Therefore, when critics of the Bible point out apparent contradictions, what they are doing is either failing to understand the context of the passages they are examining, or they have encountered a scribal copying error. The fact is that there are indeed copyist errors on the biblical documents and they account for many alleged contradictions. Remember, it is the autographs (original writings) that are inspired and inerrant, not the copies. The copies we have now are copies of inspired documents.

The thing that makes Christianity different is that this was built on eyewitnesses, not myths & legends. Would Peter, John or Paul let themselves be viciously killed for what they knew was a lie if they did not see these things. See this is not like the terrorist you see dying for what was written in a book, they died for what they had seen & experienced in life. If you question the Bible as we know it, do some true rersearch with no presuppisitions & watch all the arguments fall away, everyone of them. Even the Quaran says the Bible was true, only after Muhammed's death did the Doctrine of Shariff come about saying that every Bible in exisistense had been corrupted. It doesn't matter what I say or believe, or if you don't agree with it but the question is, is it true?
