Actually, when it comes to the critisim about Isaiah, Jews and Christians populate it. The scholars who populate the debate tend to be theists. I would hardly characterize the people who wrote the 'Harper's bible commentary" , or the "Introduction to the Old Testament" as atheists.
Attacking higher critisism by saying most of them are atheists is a strawman. Unless you have someone whose religious beliefs interfers with their conclusions, such as Gene Scott, a persons religious and
political beliefs have little to do with their scholarly conclusions.
