I found this through another forum: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bible_errata

I'm sure soem of you have seen it before, but it got me thinking. When I was a fundy,how would I have reconciled this with my belief that the bible was the innerant and perfect word of god? I did not allow for human error, mistranslations and other 'moderate' explanations. The bible was without fault to me.

So I'd like to ask theists here something. How do you explain god  allowing mistakes that could presumably give people the entirely wrong message? What if a mistake was made that fundamentally changed the salvation story? Why would god just sit by and let his living word, our primary means of understanding him, be messed with?
