my tradition is the via media.

Yep. When I did the "Bible in 90 Days" class, I found myself thinking, "God did not inspire this part," or "This has surely been mistranslated, probably on purpose," and other similar heretical things. But it's so obvious to me that God gave us brains and free will because we're supposed to *use* them! It's scary, but ignoring my experience would mean that I had succumbed to my fear, and that's...not how I want to approach the Divine.
