From the article, J.P. Moreland, in his presentation, declared:
"
In the actual practices of the Evangelical community in North America, there is an over-commitment to Scripture in a way that is false, irrational, and harmful to the cause of Christ. And it has produced a mean-spiritedness among the over-committed that is a grotesque and often ignorant distortion of discipleship unto the Lord Jesus."

Here's the article: http://protestantism.suite101.com/blog.c...
.
There is way too much dependency on the Bible in Christian circles today. The ideas of "God's Word" and "Scripture" have been distorted to mean everything between the covers of the Holy Bible. It does cause serious problems for Christianity int he world today. And, by that token, it causes serious problems for our society.
.
Christianity is shooting itself in the mouth.
