I can't be arsed to read over this entire thread, but I'd just like to say that it's impossible to be a 'Christian' and believe in Biblical errancy. It'd be like me calling myself a Muslim but rejecting part of the Koran's teachings. Religion's an "All-or-nothing" kind of deal. It's not a salad buffet where you pick and choose what you want and don't want.
Anyway, carry on with your debate!

To get on-topic, though, I can't help but laugh at the blatant hypocrisy of some athiests. They spend their time pointing the finger at hardcore theists yet they spend far too much time trying to prove that God doesn't exist (See, flying spaghetti monster) or even trying to remove all references to God from society (See, pledge of allegiance).
Theists try to spread their beliefs while athiests try to do the same. So what's the point in all this useless bickering?
And to all the athiests who live in the United States and have a problem swearing on the Bible, can I have all your money which has the statement "In God We Trust" printed on it? After all, you don't believe in God
