Even Richard Carrier acknowledges that Paul more likely than not existed and wrote some of the Epistles later to be incorporated in the NT.
I don't care who disagrees, I simply pointed to the fact that there is discussion about Paul, I am not claiming who is right or wrong - that's your false conclusion because you don't read what I actually write.
His authorship of the authentic Pauline Epistles isn't debated within NT scholarship academia. As in there is a clear consensus among NT scholars that Paul was a historical figure who authored some of the writings now found in the NT.
van Manen was wrong and he died more than a century ago just as a reminder.
