The historical quest for the identity of the author of Revelation has yielded primarily negative results. A more fruitful line of research has been the attempt to discern the social identity of the author. Considerable research has been done on the relation of the author and his work to the phenomenon of early Christian prophecy (Nikolainen 1968; Hill 197172; Müller 1976; Schüssler Fiorenza 1985: 13356; Aune 1981; Yarbro Collins 1984: 3449).
What makes you think that John the Baptist wrote any of the scripture that is now in the Book of Revelation? You can't leave me hanging here LOL - any evidence? - or are you just throwing it out there as an opinion?
