Inerrant means without error, but you have made the definition to include perfection. By raising the standard to that level, then, by your definition, none of scripture should be trusted, because we have no "proof." But your standard is a false standard. Biblical scholars of textual criticism never use your approach. Where is the error that would make the text "errant?"
