Naked Bible’s Inspiration Discussion
This is the place to start to get caught up on the inspiration and inerrancy discussion that has taken place on The Naked Bible. If you posted a comment or complaint about something in the Naked Bible’s position, and I said “do the reading and get caught up,” this is what I’m talking about. To really follow the discussion, you need to read the items below IN ORDER — including the PDF readings. If you aren’t willing to invest the time to catch up, I won’t invest the time to reply.

@Diane: Read Part I. Seems to be objecting to the (old) idea of dividing revelation from the Bible so that “revealed truth” can be found (or resides) in sources (conduits) other than the Bible. Not sure it adds anything — but did you have a specific question that prompted the links?
