A poll without definitions is bold, my friend.

Why is there no accounting for translations? Of course there are errors in many (protestant) translation. You need to specify.

The Bible, as God guided it to be written, contains no errors.

I cannot, by myself, understand all the meanings in every passage. (I don't believe any single person could.) We are looking through a glass darkly, see things imperfectly, and do not fully understanding them. Our lack of understanding might look, in our ignorance, as if it is error.

The Tradition of Catholic teaching guides me to avoid erroneous interpretations. If I still don't understand, I leave it. Maybe God will let me understand when I get to Heaven. I trust he gives me whatever understanding I need for my station in this life.

Protestants and self-guided Catholics misunderstand many things and reach conclusions that are errors of their own making, not of the Bible itself.
