Many Christians are aware that the Bible has been corrupted, mistranslated, and misunderstood many times throughout history and realize that the same might still be true today. They realize this and it does not really bother them.

I think your question is sort of liking asking how would you feel if you found out that Ed Miller's starting hand charts were found to contain some -EV plays (perhaps calling when raising or folding is better, or folding when calling is better). A poker player would say that poker is too complex to be captured by a simple set of rules and that the real value of Ed's book is to get you to think about poker (more specifically, low limit hold 'em) in a better way.

For a lot of religious people, that is the value of dogmatic rituals and religious texts. The rituals and texts have value because they result in a deeper spiritual understanding and, so they believe, a closer relationship to God.

(Of course, some people have more fundamentalist beliefs. But that's not a knock on serious religion anymore than people who play hold 'em by using starting hand charts "religiously" are a knock on serious poker players.)

This is meant to be a serious reply and I hope it is helpful.
