I know it was many men over many years, which could easily lead to even more personalization of the works. Not to mention the vast number of translations leading to errors.... Like I SAID, I've taken it out until I can find the source.
I don't have any urge to familiarise myself to the Bible any more than I've already been subjected to. Gross impossibilities like the Ark, at least literally, have stopped any reasonable explanations coming from that particular source. Even the story of Jesus parallels older similar tales, or do you think he was the 1st son of a god that rose from the dead.... I can't copy and paste with my PS3, but I'll give some sources when I get back to work. Or just look for folk lore and legend "heroes" and you'll see a few that easily outdate Jesus.
