The evidence of this can be found in good bookshops everywhere.
They got their information from varied sources. Poets and songwriters from their imaginations, theologions from their ponderances on the subject. Christians and Jews use the blanket term "god inspired". There is the rabbinical tradition where a Rabbi's teaching has to be cross verified by two established Rabbi's before anything new is accepted as correct. The church fathers scrutinised the texts and came up with the canon.
So, you are telling me that you are basing your assertion God is just on a book from various authors from various generations that were supposedly inspired by God.
Now, ignoring the fact that theres no evidence they were inspired by God as opposed to primitive superstition and severe delusions of grandeur, why should we acknowledge what essentially amounts to God telling us he is just through various glove puppets.
We'd all like to write our own reviews after all and if what you say is to be believed, he did.
