There is no reason to give up the Bible as a rule book or instruction manual. There are plenty of misspellings in the written laws of the land, do we throw away the law because some of its books have misspellings (errors) I do not think so.
It is precisely because God knows how infallible, imperfect and easily led astray that he gave us the Bible as channel to keep us within the truth.
