I take it these people have never had one course in Biblical Criticism at the University level or they'd know that the Documentary hypothesis ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Documentary_hypothesis ) or at least some modern revisions of it) are excepted by the vast majority of scholars that have looked at The Bible. It is as highly accepted in its field of scholarship as Darwin is in Biology.
And no the Biblical books weren't written by the people that tradition ascribes them to. It's been known for hundreds of years that Moses didn't write the Torah, that David didn't write Psalms and that most of the New Testament writings weren't written by the people whose names they bear. They were just given those titles by other, later writers trying to attach some air of authenticity to their works.
