Your argument is a clear fallacy: 1. because Paul still wrote it even if it is an amalgamation of his letters, and 2. because it has no significance to the more important letters he wrote anyway. By your standard of evidence that we know that 2 Cor is an amalgamation, we know that 1 Cor, Romans, and Galatians were not.Rhythm
I think it's amusing that, as a historical jesus begins to unravel we desperately seek something written by a "Paul", lol.
Zactly. What a guy. Paul, a penniless preacher wanders all over the place, convincing strangers to forget their beliefs and put in place his stories of a Jesus that he never met except in a dream. He establishes all these churches leaving no proof that he founded any of them. This superman even survives a stoning in Acts 14:19
Quote:Then some Jews came from Antioch and Iconium and won the crowd over. They stoned Paul and dragged him outside the city, thinking he was dead.
20But after the disciples had gathered round him, he got up and went back into the city. The next day he and Barnabas left for Derbe.
What a guy.
