Some do take the 2nd Generation Christian theory. However....that is a fairly new concept(in terms of the history of the church), many of the Early Fathers, held to Pauline authorship.......not saying they could not be wrong, but sometimes the farther back we go the closer we can get to the truth(key word...sometimes)!
