Who Wrote The Bible?

Who wrote The Bible? The next two claims of forgery against the New Testament are the allegations of illiterate authors & false attribution to authors. Were the NT writers too illiterate to write their documents & couldn’t find another way to get their ideas down to be disseminated to others? Is there proof that the names of the authors were put onto the NT documents just to add some credibility to the forgeries? Once the evidence is evaluated, the claims of illiteracy & forgery crumble.
