Paul's Writings Underpin Western Thought
RE: Paul's Writings Underpin Western Thought

You say they are inexorably linked, but then call the argument from silence irrelevant.  I'm confused.

I don't see where what you assume about my beliefs is relevant however.    If you are saying that Paul didn't talk about myself, I agree.
It is said that an argument is what convinces reasonable men and a proof is what it takes to convince even an unreasonable man.  - Alexander Vilenkin
