i like that answer, but i think that it might be more complex then all that.Originally Posted by johnnylightnin
there was not a cohesive body of "christian" works until over 2 centuries after the resurection and wasn't accepted in the current form until late in the 4th century, and even then some christians had problems with it...revelation springs to mind as one book that brought contreversy with it's canonization. even martin luther questioned some of the canonized text. so, i guess it's kind of interesting that most christians don't have a healthy (and i think it is healthy), questioning nature.
i'm not saying that they weren't God-breathed and they certainly were God-inspired, just (i guess) going further out on this tangent.
