Where Faith Comes From in the "moderate" Christian religions

Most of the churches that I have attended have advocated the idea that the Bible is inerrant and though symbolic, without error. Only recently have I been introduced to the idea that the Bible was anything less than perfect. To me, that was and is irrelevant, though. I believe that the essential Word is living and active, that the Word is the character of God, personified through Jesus Christ. Of course I cannot prove this assertion, thus it remains a personal belief.Are my beliefs illogical? Yes, most definitely. I don't need to rely solely on the Bible for my personal beliefs, though my critics contend that my God is in fact a made-up imaginary friend.My personal conversion experience, however, was quite real to me, and carries a lot of weight in my decision making process pertaining to belief.

My conversion experience played a large role in my belief, as I said before. I will admit that confirmation bias has probably also played a large role, as well as the fact that I feel I can't very well discard my belief unless I am as equally convinced that it is not real as I previously was convinced that it was and is real.

I'll discuss this more at length when I get home from work..
