Hey Kenny, can you prove that? I can prove my side. Which is much harder, to prove a book to be the Word of God or prove a book is not? Yet I have proof that it is. Where is yours?
The original language (which can be translated) is 100% the Word of God. If it were 75%, then who would be the arbitor of what 25% is not, the Jesus Seminar? Yeah, like THEY know.
If the Bible is not 100% the Word of God, then God cannot preserve His own book, and He is not God. What is worse, we would have only a relative gospel where people can pick and choose what they wish to believe with no concrete path for salvation. God has set the path clearly, it is only whether or not you wish to take it.
God has proven His Word by a myriad of fulfilled prophecies.

These are concrete and can be cross-checked and varified via history. If you choose to be like Kenny and close your eyes to the fact, you will have to live with that error with eternal consequence.
If the Bible is not 100% the Word of God, then what shall we do regarding 2 Timothy 3:16...?
"All Scripture is given by inspiration of God"
It's either one or the other.

The bible was written by men. If you believe that these men had a direct link to god then there is a chance that some of it, but not much, would reflect the mind of the Judeo/Christian god. Why? Because whatever information might have been given would have been filtered through the mind of the human receiving. Also...
Given that we have no original document, the chances of it not being tampered with let alone messed up in the multiple translations is slim to none.
I believe you are taking your chances if you believe that this hybrid document for which we have no original, is in fact the world of god. Caveat Emptor. Let the buyer beware.

There are no gods, so the Bible is 0% the word of anyone divine. It is 100% merely what some priests want men to believe is a god's word. Priests gain great power over people and con much money with holy books. Such routines are inhuman. How much misery and loss of lives this con game has cost!

My KJV Bible is the True Inspired word of God, from the beginning, to the end. It comes complete. Jesus is the living word, the Bible is the written word. The Bible needs to be Reread. Not Rewritten.

The whole Bible is God's word.

100% and yet none.
The Bible alone is printed paper and meaningless.
The Bible illuminated by the Holy Spirit is a magnificent history and guide provided in perfection by God.

It was written by humans and humans are not perfect, so absolutely it does not express 100% of God's will....Fundamentalists will argue that it is all inspired by the Holy Spirit, but that is based upon one scripture written by Timothy.

0% the bible was written by man as he percieved it to be. The word and voice of god is to powerful to be put into mere words.

It's the word of God whatever % people who read it think it is.
