The Chicago Statement also says:
"Apparent inconsistencies should not be ignored. Solution of them, where this can be convincingly achieved, will encourage our faith, and where for the present no convincing solution is at hand we shall significantly honor God by trusting His assurance that His Word is true, despite these appearances, and by maintaining our confidence that one day they will be seen to have been illusions."

So no matter how many of the massive quantities of contradictions anyone shows you, you can still just say "I have faith" and shrug it off. Does that sounds reasonable or logical? Liberal, even some moderate, Christian scholars and all non-Christian biblical scholars agree that there are contradictions and forgeries in the bible. This is what causes problems in religion, DOGMA. Do not question, instead take what has been said to be the truth no matter what.

If I ever became convinced that there were massive quantities of contradictions, I would simply abandon the whole thing rather than make some lame attempt to decide which parts were true and which were false.
