Yet, as we have seen, there are passages in the text which are susceptible to two or more possible interpretations. That ambiguity allows the possibility of error which is in itself error if the purpose was to provide unambiguous and incontrovertible instruction to all. |
That reminds me of the Star Trek episode where the alien robot gets caught in a logical contradiction and destroys itself. |
i now have this image of Southern Baptist luminaries poring over passages from Scripture until smoke and sparks burst out of their ears to cries of "Error! Error! Does not compute! Error! Error!"
