    I would add one thing, which is that we humans are required to preserve Scripture. We are "kings and priests with God and with Christ." In the OT, kings were required to copy out their own copy of the Law, and priests were given the task of preserving the Law.

    I am curious about the poll. One person said "Other." What would that be?

    And to the 3 so far who said that Scripture is preserved miraculously, what form would such a miracle take, hypothetically?
