anybody with a pen basically.

As Khalid Yasiin pointed out, one thing i'll never understand about the authors of the bible is why people trust some men who didn't even leave their last name....John, Mathew, Luke etc. Since when in the history of documentation has only a first name ever been a valid form of documentation? If i gave someone a cheque with my first name only written on it, would they be able to cash it? So how u gonna trust some men who lived decades after Jesus died and didn't even leave a last name?

I agree. We shouldn't discuss about the bible beyond what Islam teaches us about it.

The bible has been written by a whole bunch of guys.
Every other week it gets re-written by somebody.

Some authors were never well identified. Some are probably falsely identified or had their reputed stores told by someone else. There are gobs of contradictions and clear imports from other religious traditions. The author of Hebrews is not named, but is clearly someone from a highly educated tradition, possibly associated with a (imperial) court.

Peter (Cephas) was Simon bar Jona

Paul was Saul of Tarsus.

James and John were the sons of Zebedee.

John the Revelator is thought to have been John of Patmos.

Fah,

I agree, that is a great series. I got to eight/twelve and haven't disagreed with anything significant so far. Will watch the rest when I have more time.

Unlike the Koran that cant be changed or edited, the bible has so many editions so its very hard to answer that question.

100% true. The Quran is a miracle as it cannot be changed or edited. Allah protects the Quran from human tampering, changing, editing, etc. Allahu Akbar.
