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.
