It assumes that man is the most active agent in the process of the Bible's development. The Bible presents a very different picture. Instead of man actively seeking the secrets of Divine Truth, the Bible presents God actively seeking mankind to reveal His will unto them. Such men did not even fully comprehend the full impact of their message. These views eventually have man determining where God is actually speaking in the Bible.
Man is granted power over the Bible rather than taking a place under it.
All such views have lost sight of the purpose for the Bible in the first place. Karl Barth, a German theologian had embraced the misconception that the Bible was filled with errors, even in the original autographs, and yet he still wanted to believe that the Bible was the word of God. His solution was that the Bible 'becomes the word of God'. In this 'existential experience, or crisis encounter', the meaningless ink blots on the pages leap from the Bible to speak to man concretely and meaningfully. At this 'moment of meaning', the Bible becomes the Word of God to the individual.
