And just where did I advocate that the Toledoth was written by gentiles???

I didn't say you absolutely believed that but that you considered it a possibility. Or perhaps I was reading too much into what you meant because I personally am increasingly convinced that the Toldoth story was not written by Jews.
Here was part of your posting above:

As an organized work, all manuscripts come from the medieval period and were actually first published by Christians (leading to the contention that Christians had written it to foment hatred of the Jews). While the latter is very unlikely, only certain elements and themes that later became the complete Toledoth can be traced earlier, with much variation and uncertainty. Some of those themes can be found alluded to in Christian writers of the 2nd and later centuries, but nothing that could identify an actual “book” in ‘print’ and circulation, or even a source in an ur-collection common to the Toledoth.
