Thanks, Mr. Rafalsky.

So some scholars see the existence of textual variants as support for the Holy Spirit's inspiration and providence of Scripture because they are relatively few and 'insignificant'. Their assumption would be, I assume, that if it were just any old book there would be many variants and they would be 'significant'. Does this fairly capture the essence of their assumption?

My only question would be, if there were no variants at all, would that undermine the Spirit's inspiration and providence?
