i think he is questioning the validity for possibly higher enlightenment... if things were so accurate in the bible where is everything it speaks of, why is faith always the answer, i personally dont think its far off to think that be bible too has been LOST IN TRANSLATION. there is not accurate account of even when it was written, and from what i read not only does he hold a PHD in theology, but he is one of the top experts on ancient text such as the Dead Sea Scrolls, i think things sometimes are hard for people to grasp if they don't hold such knowledge/insight.
