In that he taught that all gentiles had to become Jews (mentally and physically) first then be converted into Christianity. Hence Paul's circumcision of the heart rather than peter's.. "peter circumcision" Smile

Circumcision is a hard concept to sell to grown ass men. Paul did a lot of lawyering. Many have accused him of being motivated by power; he lawyered what was Jewish Christianity to make it more palatable to converts in order to more easily expand his sphere of influence.
