I don't think the blame can be tossed entirely on "non-believers". If a person comes to church saying, "I want to believe" and the guy next to them says, "If you don't believe there was a global flood, get out" then we run into a problem.
That's why I tell people, "focus on what Jesus tells you".

I Corinthians isn't written by the same people who wrote the Gospels.

I tend to agree with this question. Its infallible (the originals) or its not. And every church body that strays from this seems to get further and further from what the Bible actually says and morphs into a social justice gathering.
However a different line of thinking would say that we believe because the events took place...not because they were written down perfectly.That's a little too abstract for me. But possible.
To me that would be more relevant in comparing not having a bible to having one. Oral tradition vs God's Word.
