Discuss the following:

Who wrote each book of the bible? Start with Genesis,
end with Revelations, and provide documentation on
what your evidence is for your claims.

Who interpolated those writings, and what did they add,
remove, and change? Start with Genesis, end with Reve-
lations, and provide documentation on what your evidence
is for your claims.

Who chose the bible books, and what were their decisions
based on, and when were their decisions made, and how
did they choose what to include and exclude from their
choices? Provide documentation on what your evidence
is for your claims.

The alternate religious foundational documents, compare
those to the documents in your bible, and explain why the
bible rates a cut above alternatives, -if- you think it does?
