The Quakers are the only Christian group I know of who've come right out and said that the bible is just a book and as such may contain inaccuracies and falsehoods. I respect them very much for this, and their entire "no creed" position.

The "of course" heartens me. Not that I doubted your position at all!
There are, however, many people who would leave out the "of course". There are some people who would negate the entire sentence. And there are a handful who apparently think that to even utter a word of doubt on religious matters would be to doom themselves to fiery death... 8^P
