Genuinely curious, how do you put so much acceptance into the Bible, when all four books (John, Matthew, Luke, and Mark) have anonymous authors?

- baddox 12y agoWhy does the anonymity of the authors matter?
- functional_test 12y agoAnonymous sources of information are generally recognized as less credible (for example, they have less reason to be truthful since they have no credibility on the line). Of course, the larger problem isn't the anonymity of the authors. It's why the bible should be accepted over any other text. Perhaps it should, but that would have to be argued separately.
