Judaism says Moses wrote them. Traditional Christianity tends to agree. What say you?
There are several different schools of thought on this, from moses alone (which doesn't jive because of what was written of his death) a combination of moses and Arron, which is possible, to even a more out their senerio that it was a collaboration of many different writters.
No matter who wrote it bottom line is we have it and as per the parable of the talents are responsible for its contents.
Jesus Christ... have you ever heard yourself speak before? I mean, is there *any* threshold whatsoever for you that makes you stop for a second and just think if what you're saying is reasonable or not?
Let me just get to the point: it sounds like no matter how the Torah was composed, it will *always* be supernaturally inspired. I beg to differ for obvious reasons, but I won't bother mentioning them since you're clearly committed to your conclusion no matter what the state of affairs would've been.
I think it's this air about you that makes it hard for anyone to take you seriously.
