Why is NOT ALL Scripture inspired by God?

The Apostle Paul made it clear that, “All Scripture is inspired by God, and is profitable” for a wide variety of things pertaining to faith and practice. So, why is it that a growing number of people are in abject disagreement with Paul’s assessment? Why are they presupposing that some liberal “scholar’s” opinion is more authoritative than Paul’s? Why do they presuppose that their own implicit authority in all matters pertaining to life, morals, and reality trumps what God has said about each? Could it be that as each day lived in these “last days,” we are seeing the very thing promised by God through Paul taking place, and yet those involved in all the rancor and hostility toward God, the Bible, and Christianity are unable to see, much less understand, that they are fulfilling prophecy found in the very book they say is not inspired by God? That “the time is coming when people will not endure [tolerate] sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions”?
