Okay, so that's not exactly what I mean. Some of the text of our scriptures contain the words of God, but the whole of the text is still a product of human efforts, albeit inspired and infallible. This is different to the Mohammedan thought that each and every word in the book is one explicitly divinely dictated. Many protestants believe like that, but it is to make the text do something it was not meant to do.
