The Historical Reliability of the New Testament

[Minimalist]

Critics of Marcion like Tertullian and Epiphanius complained that Marcion cut and edited scripture to fit his beliefs. Biblical scholar Adolf von Harnack accepted this claim in his definitive text on Marcion, Marcion: The Gospel of an Alien God (1920). However, Tertullian and Epiphanius lived several generations after Marcion, and they assumed the New Testament they read already existed in Marcion’s era. It didn’t. Marcion’s critics were reading history backward instead of forward: there was no New Testament yet.

Yeah - so when did this so-called "paul" make it to the big time?  Justin, c 160 never heard of him which considering that Justin was in Rome writing to the emperor seems utterly unbelievable.  How could he not know of the man who brought jesus to the Gentiles a century earlier....or so the bullshit story goes.
