Your speculation has no traction against the evidence within the writings that suggest they were written centuries after Moses' time. It debunks any sort of lead author/scribe/contributor theory in the blink of an eye unfortunately, leaving us with the conclusion that some scribes eventually wrote down the traditions after centuries. That's what scholarship tells us; 5 authors are responsible for the Pentateuch and, given the internal evidence, they lived centuries after Moses.
When you can't prove your religion to be true, at least try and win any trivial debate, right?
Look, I didn't mean it in an absolute way, but rather as in the majority here are fundamentalists. Have you never stated something in that manner before?

Yes, let's...
Once you either correct your error or prove that "every Christian" thinks otherwise, I'll answer your deflection...
