"Paul did meet Christ, or rather Saul did. Acts Chapter 9 is a whole chapter dedicated to describing the conversion of Saul to Paul after he meets Christ."
Now that's a stretch and a half isn't it - he never met Jesus, he never saw Jesus - all he got was a voice from the heavens (could have been anyone really):
"Saul, Saul why do you persecute me?"
and
"I am Jesus whom you are persecuting. Now get up and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do."
Doesn't really seem to be enough to base a gospel on now does it.
Therefore - everything Paul got was indeed second hand, thank you for confirming it.
