You wrote: "that depends on how you define. . . ." This is the second time this idea has been said in the last two posts.
This is a part of the problem. Everyone has their own definition of this or that. This independent spirit has caused 28,000 varieties of Christianity. But then again, I guess that depends on how you define Christianity.
I guess that depends on how you define Christianity
I guess that depends on how you define Conservative
I guess that depends on how you define inerrancy
I guess that depends on how you define inspired
I guess that depends on how you define evidence

I suspect that depends on how you define "conservative". I think you will
find that there are many who would define themselves as conservative in
religious terms who would either accept the idea of documentary sources
[even if not in the classical EDJP form] or have an open mind on the subject
Among Christians iIt seems to be mainly among conservative evangelicals who
hold to the concept of an inerrant Bible that any form of documentary
sources are unacceptable. They do not make up the totality, or even the
majority, of conservative Christians and Jews who would consider themselves
to be biblical scholars.

Dear Lloyd,
Amongst "mainstream" scholars "so-called" it is accepted. Amongst
conservative
Scholars it is NOT accepted.
