So, are you saying Holy Scripture is nothing more than a few dudes’ diary entries? Ancient Crib notes?

The Scriptures are clearly notes of what were the most important thoughts/memories of the early Christians; they were never intended to record every last aspect of the Faith. The author of the Gospel of John states this in no uncertain terms. (cf John 21:25)

You can take that however you wish, but the facts remain as stated. And indeed show that again, it’s actually a disservice to both us today and the memory of the early Christians to view their actions wrt Scripture through any other kind of lens than one that takes their (and our) humanity into account.
