Whoa, it's crazy that a Christian group at Cambridge would hold to inerrancy. I thought that was a pretty much strictly American Evangelical thing, never a Cantabrigian thing.
UCCF/IFES started at Cambridge. I think the Doctrinal Basis they use came about as a result of disagreements with the Student Christian Movement, who were more liberal. There's a book about it.
The inerrancy I held to at Cambridge didn't require me to be a young-earther or anything crazy like that. I think that really is an American thing, although it's seeping in to the UK to some extent.
