Are there original manuscripts?
What about the fact that we don't have any original manuscripts of the Bible, only copies? What if they got the basic historical information copied right, but they miscopied the important theological concepts. A missed word or two could make a real difference.

Even though there are no originals, since we have so many copies all the mystery is gone about what the originals actually said. Scholars who criticize the Bible don't do it on the basis of the fact that we don't know what the original text had to say.
