The First Century Void

Yes, apologists always come up with shitty, ad-hoc explanations.  Congratulations for continuing the trend.

The church put out a story  - probably in the late 2d century - that "paul" brought the faith to the gentiles in the mid first century.  That would make him an important sonofabitch... right up there with the other (most likely fictional) apostles.  But Justyn, sitting in his ass in Rome over 100 years later doesn't know fuckall about him.  He knows Marcion, though. 

I'm afraid you will have to try harder.

I don't have to try harder.  It's your argument, and a plausible explanation as to why a particular writer did not mention something is all that is needed to defeat the argument from silence.  It's your burden to support your assertion. Just because Justin doesn't mention Paul, doesn't mean that he doesn't know of him.   This is why Wiki classified this a weak form of argument.  As well, I showed you that there are many other early Christian writers, who did quote from Paul; so even if, your fallacious reasoning was correct; your premise is shown to be false.  Again, you want to focus on just one person (or piece of evidence) but ignore the larger group, which doesn't support your case.  

I notice, that you neither addressed the reasoning I have provided, nor the information I gave.   You simply attack the person, the origins of the critique and double down on your assertion.  Should I hear volumes in your silence?

How can more information about that clusterfuck help ??

More information is always better.... As per the topic of this thread, people with wild imaginations, tend to fill the gaps of any lack of information and confuse that with facts.  Hence the argument from silence is a favored tactic by village atheists!
