Limiting inerrancy to "Truth necessary for salvation" is just shifting the
problem. As human beings there is no second of our day which is not
stained with sin. "Total depravity" means that every moment of our day is
full of sin, which means that no theory we have is without sin. However,
we have to keep on striving to do the right things (studying and improving
theories) and try to follow Christ in all of our work and play. (See, I am
a Calvinist).
