For a self-proclaimed bible wonk, you don't back up your positions with the Bible very much.
I, for one, would very much appreciate it if you did so.

I often assume that when people debate the bible with me it is because they have read it a lot like I have. Therefore when I mention things that it obviously says I assume they will be aware of the many places it says that and will reference other things it says to counter. You are aware that the scripture says that it is inspired ofcourse. You should also be aware of places where the Lord would rebuke His challengers with their lack of knowledge of scriptures. Maybe you've read psalm 119, I certainly hope so. How about when Jesus discusses Moses writings with the Jews and points out that Moses was writing about Him. I particularly love in Rev 19:10 where it says the spirit of prophesy is the testimony of Jesus, in case you ever wondered what the universal commonality of the prophets is. Is any of this ringing any bells or are you going to force me to go to a concordance even though you could do that.
How about Heb 5:13 and 14. If you want to quit being a baby get skilled in the Word. It surprises me to find out how few Christians, even Evangelicals actually read through the bible atleast once per year.

I find the Keyword Search at Bible Gateway helpful.
