Same problem really with the made in god's image, god must use a really shitty photocopier because we've got as many bugs as windows XP.
Well, alot of people thought that, until they found the dead sea scrolls in like...1947, which were copies of the bible as of about 600AD, IIRC...and comparing them to the current translations yeilds the same document. That seems to be to be a pretty good track record.
