I think this is a good answer. (Hi Daniel
)
It also seems to me to be a question that "Jesus" looked to address (or, at least, the words attributed to Jesus). Jesus spoke of following "... the law of love... written on the heart..." vs. a law "carved in stone. One's alive and beating, the other is cold and dead. The gospels are replete with stories of Jesus correcting people who were looking to judge people by throwing the book at them (so to speak). Treating people from a heart of love is a whole different proposition.
Life is wiggly. We may fall into the delusion of thinking we can have an anchor, but if it doesn't move, chances are it's dead.
And BTW, it's pretty easy to find errors in the Bible for those who want to believe it is "the inerrant Word of God." There's some pretty glaring stuff if you are interested.
