I personally think some of the comments on this site can get pretty ridiculous at times, more importantly, they can utterly obliterate an otherwise important message. However, you know what is said about opinions and how they are like a particular body part (everybody’s got one, and they all stink). The thing I have seen that truly ruins credibility is when atheists/agnostics/whatever pontificate about the Bible, yet they don’t believe in it in the first place.

Clearly fren you are better versed on this topic than I am. Thank you for the introducing me these sources so I may investigate further. My position is not that 100% the bible has been corrupted. However, knowing how corruptible men are and how power corrupts, I will entertain the idea that it is a possiblity that the Bible/knowledge can be corrupted by a powerful few to further their agenda.
An example would be the historical view of two sexes. Who would have thought in just a decade, our global medical/scientific authorities will state that men can be women and women can be men, etc. Something so innate and natural can even be refuted and proported to be true just through leverage of power via small powerful organizations. Imagine what can be done in religious organizations.
"The majority Biblical of scholars do not support the idea" This reminds me of "the majority of doctors and scientists do not support the idea that the covid vaccines are bad, or covid was developed in a lab, or etc etc". Did these biblical scholars all come to their own conclusion or were they just playing it safe to not be seen as heretical. Again, I'm not saying that is what happened. Just that there is a possibility for corruption. That's all.
Thanks for sharing your ideas fren.
Remember this: God can draw a straight line with a crooked stick.
Godspeed in your research, my fren.
That I have no doubt.
