Misquotes in Misquoting Jesus : why you can still believe

"At the time of this writing, Misquoting Jesus continues to stand at the number one spot in hardcover religion sales. ... Reactions have varied greatly. Many preachers and devout Bible fans have labeled Misquoting Jesus (and even Bart Ehrman) heresy, simply dismissing it without a fair read. On the other end of the spectrum, there are the numerous scholars and Christian leaders who have embraced the popularity of Misquoting Jesus, proclaiming it an accurate portrayal of church history and the New Testament's transmission. However, a growing number of individuals (including myself) have chosen to believe that there is a third option. While Misquoting Jesus may include some accurate information about portions of the New Testament's history, many aspects are skewed to make the author's point, and stands on very flimsy historical evidence."--Author's comments, pages vi-vii
