As late as 160 AD when Justin wrote his First Apology to Emperor Antoninus Pius we have a significant xtian writer, in Rome, who makes not a single reference to this "paul" guy. He does, however, know of Marcion.
When a xtian can explain how Justin, a gentile, does not know of the guy who supposedly brought jesusism to the gentiles a century earlier I will be suitably impressed. So far, you have all failed miserably.

At the very least, this implies some sort of editing of the "holy" horseshit. Then there is the whole archaeological problem of Corinth in the first century.

Quote:The book known as 2 Corinthians is one of the fourteen New Testament letters that have traditionally been attributed to Paul, the great early Christian missionary preacher. While the authorship of many of these letters has been debated by modern scholars, there is a nearly unanimous consensus that 2 Corinthians was written by Paul. However, it was probably not written in the same form in which it appears today. Most scholars agree that 2 Corinthians is a combination of several letters written by Paul to the community of Christian believers in the Greek city of Corinth.
