If you have confidence in the Scriptures then you have confidence in
a wonderful, but fallible, tool of communication; and additional faith in the
a wonderful, but fallible, group of scholars and clergymen who translate and interpret them.
The Scriptures have been translated in a variety of ways, interpreted in a great variety of ways, then revised and reinterpreted with ever increasing variety.
Hearing, writing, preserving, translating, interpreting, and revising are the works of men, and men are notoriously fallible. A real god would see to important communications in a timely and unequivocal manner would he not?
