You'll be fightin' a losing battle. The Priestly, Elohist, Yahwist authors are all acknowledged by legit Biblical scholars, yet you'll find no such knowledge by many fundamentalist/literalists here on FR.

Also, they have difficulty explaining the presence of Ecclesiastes which was probably included in the canon because it was so good, but it's theology is out of whack with the remainder of the Old Testament.

Yes, I sure found that out the hard way, didn't I? Oh well, I've wasted time on less important things than this. I did actually learn a lot from those who were willing to discuss and not insult, so in that sense it was worth it. I think I'll stop reading though, it's like banging my head against a wall.
