Doctor Daniel B. Wallace Professor of New Testament Studies is a strong defender of the scriptures and yet he admits that all the Greek manuscripts have variations.
copying was done by hand, which is well known to be unreliable, so where exactly are these "exact" copies.
My faith stands upon Jesus Christ, I read the Bible and accept it as the word of God, and yet I have no problem accepting that there are minor variations in the Greek manuscripts, it does nothing to destroy or shake my faith at all, I have no desire to go back to smoking doobies. (not that I ever did)
