Once the "letter writing" under any name began, and became recognized as "authoritative", this one happened to be Paul,
that alone would be good enough to fake letters by a "Paul".
This doesn't address the point I'm making above. What was the motivation initially to attribute to a fictional character?
I already answered that, above.
See : https://www.jesusneverexisted.com/paul.htm
Paul did not preach (if there was one) "Christianity". He preached his own gospel, which he admitted/claimed he got "by personal revelation", (and "from no man").
I still want to know which academics support your claims who are not "economically obligated" (not PAID by Christian organizations) to support the status quo.
Every religion is true one way or another. It is true when understood metaphorically. But when it gets stuck in its own metaphors, interpreting them as facts, then you are in trouble. - Joseph Campbell
