word or Word?

I guess that I have always viewed God as somehow controlling the hand of the Biblical authors as they wrote the words that they were inspired to write. Whether or not it happened in just this way, I knew that God was involved somehow.
However, others say that the Bible is simply a collection of some historians, poets, dreamers, and other motley associated people and their thoughts, recollections and observations. Maybe this is true. To be honest, I am tired. Tired of trying to boil it down to either/or. Black or white. Yes or no. Right or wrong.
Even though I really believe it is one way or the other and that the character of God is stake, I like to think that this whole issue maybe doesn't matter that much.

And, yet... that is so unsatisfactory.
