Paul never knew Jesus personally. I merely lived during the time of Jesus.

Most of what Paul wrote was the result of one man's bitter reaction to being rejected by the apostles in Jerusalem. His position was basically, "Okay, they won't make me an apostle, so I will go to the gentiles, make my own church, and make myself an apostle. Fuck them."

That's ... pretty much that.

Also Paul isn't some one to be trusted the guy was a known lair. He did so with his own intentions in mind. Ill list out a few of why Paul is a deceiver.
why would you trust anything Paul wrote i mean look at this.

Galatians 1:11-12 (NIV)
11 I want you to know, brothers and sisters, that the gospel I preached is not of human origin. 12 I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it; rather, I received it by revelation from Jesus Christ.

He never knew he walked the earth and died.

You cannot reach this conclusion based upon that quote of Paul alone. It does not say that Paul didn't know that Jesus never walked the earth. It merely says that Paul was receiving revelation from Jesus Christ.

He clearly says elsewhere that Jesus was born in the flesh, and was crucified and died. When he says he's receiving revelation, he is claiming to be in direct contact with the spirit of Jesus.

But you cannot cherry pick verses in an effort to assemble a very improbable and contradictory position.

I would respond to the rest of what you said if it was in any way related to the issue we are discussing, but since it isn't, I have no comment.
