      God’s ghost writers rarely get credited.

      Whoops, that’s because humans make mistakes but God doesn’t so anything that’s wrong in the Bible is the fault of humans, not the omnipotent being that can’t make mistakes.

        Pretty simple trick to distinguish the two possible authors that works for any verse, learned from a lifetime of Christian study:

        • If you agree, it was 100% written by God.

        • If you disagree, 100% written by fallible humans.

    There’s some social media post that refers to Christianity as “Jesus Fandom”, which lives rent-free in my head…
