Re: A strong argument pro authenticity of the Pauline epistles

The Catholic redactor does not make that argument, but redactorial fatigue shows that this had been the original assumption of Pseudo-Paul.

Re: Why Richard Carrier is 100% right about the extreme diffusion of euhemerization: the curious case of Epiphanes

Paul shows traces of editorial fatigue of anti-marcionite redaction, as demonstrated by Hermann Detering in Der Gefaelschte Paulus.

Re: "Matthew set in order the logia": the Earliest Gospel?

The Catholic doctrine is only hypocritically defending the demiurge while at the same time not interested in keeping YHWH's laws. Rather, they just attempt to sell their activity in the department of stretching and bending law as a proper understanding of the prophesies of the Old Testament. The nam...
