It seems to be that many Christians out there hold two very conflicting beliefs:

A. That the bible is the infallible word of God.

B. That free will is God's gift to man.

But that brings up a complication. If man is not able to corrupt the bible, then his free will is compromised. There can be no stipulations when it comes to free will. We either have it, or we don't have it. If we have it then I'd say that there is a very good chance that the bible has been warped from its original intentions (whether or not it was 'inspired' by God) by those wishing to use it to their advantage. If we don't have it, then our fates are being carefully directed so that our actions don't result in the book's corruption (whether directly or indirectly).

Gauging by the number of contradictions that can be found in the Bible, and by many Christians' observed habits of twisting its words to suit their own agendas, I'm going to vote on 'B'.

Thoughts?
