alltheleavesarebrown, while this is a conspiracy site, there has been more research into New Testament bible authorship than virtually any topic on earth. Secularists wish to undermine, and theologians look for holes to plug. Turns out, the accepted wisdom is largely correct. You drop some links here, like that's going to undermine centuries of research. It's funny, really it is.
And you drop no links.
The bible was written by guys with different agendas.

I've got at least a 50 hours listening to podcasts and such on this topic by noted apologists like Jimmy Akin and Taylor Marshall, as well as in person presentations that, like in the old days, you can't give hyperlinks so some internet guru can try to "debonk". Everything you're bringing up, for example, was gone over by Jerome when he translated the bible into Latin in like 380AD. He spend the rest of his life writing commentaries on his choices in that process.
The bible is the most read and studied text in human history, you think you bring anything new to the table that hasn't been examined a hundred times before? The sheer hubris is, well, biblical in proportion.
So all 73 books, yes, were written over a long period of time by all sorts of different authors, with different agendas because THEY ARE TELLING DIFFERENT STORIES. You think the author of the Book of Job didn't have one agenda that is different from the author of Leviticus? What point are you getting at here?
Frankly, you'd be better off saying, from your point of view, when the Bible was compiled what they left in and what they took out, was done with an agenda.
Its debunk but ok. Not sure why you excited. Anyhow. My view is that anything very popular is full of lies. Mixed with truth.
Peace b with u.
You know the mocking way to say "debunk" is spelled like that.
I'm not excited, but rather annoyed. I admittedly responded like you were a typical fedora tipping neck-beard internet atheist, and for that I apologize.
For your own edification, look into what books were excluded by the compilers of the Bible, and even why Martin Luther threw out 7 books from the older version, and you may find some of the answer you seek.
