Oh well. It's the world's oldest book, most historically, scientific (when it deals with it) and accurate prophetic book ever.  

 

We know who's behind it! The evil one's identify is revealed.

Article that notes lack of Bible  Knowledge (as well as other misinformation or partial information) has contributed to the stated hypothesis.

 

"According to UShistory.org, Paine used these biblical references because “most people in America had a working knowledge of the Bible,” and because of this, Paine’s arguments struck a chord and enabled the colonists to relate and accept the truth of his words."
