Skepticism and doubt toward the Bible
I have seen it said here at PB recently that “99%” of customary Biblical scholars from properly accredited universities or colleges favor the CT or eclectic-type Greek texts (or, to put it negatively, texts which are not TR), and that may be the the truth, though I think the stat quoted is arbitrary and not scientifically adduced. But for argument’s sake let’s go with it anyway.
Two years after the exodus from Egypt (Numbers 1:1), of the 603,550 males over 20 (Numbers 1:45, 46), but a itsy-bitsy fraction of these adults entered into the promised land, for the mass of the people of Israel, Moses declared, hearkened to those 10 men who spied out the realty and spoke not by faith but by human reason, telling the people it was madness to go against the mighty inhabitants dwelling in the soil the LORD had promised them.

“A growing vanguard of young graduates of evangelical colleges who absorb doctorates from non-evangelical divinity centers now question or disown inerrancy and the doctrine is held less consistently by evangelical faculties. ... Some remain aware of the term and reassure supportive constituencies but nonetheless stretch the term’s meaning” (Carl F.H. Henry, “Clash over Biblical Inerrancy,” Christianity Today, May 7, 1976).
