He was a great guy. Not only was he personally chosen by Jesus Christ, but his writings on employment and labor are also great, so much ahead of his time. He disproves Marx's view of religion quite directly. Exemplary man.

Pretty much all the stuff people consider hateful and backwards in the NT can be traced to him instead of the Gospel authors.

That being said, his anti-circumcision stance saved billions.

[Anonymous No.22123420]

Reminder that Luke and Acts are written by the same author, so you can't logically be pro-Gospel but anti-Paul.

Paul proved the importance of advertising. Without his efforts Christianity would have been just another failed religion.

Jesus would have wept if he’d seen the cult Paul made of him and how he distorted his teachings in a way to seek power. Truly the anti-Jesus

[Anonymous No.22124170]

Sure, he found capital 'C' Christanity, rescuing it from being just another Greco-Judaic messianic mystery cult hybrid.

[Anonymous No.22124190]

There is absolutely no bigger brainlet take than the "Paul corrupted Jesus' teachings" take. There's not been a single person who had the idea whose own thoughts are worth reading.

I have found a lot of beauty in his epistles, which in turn has allowed me to appreciate the Person and work of Christ more.

Plus going down the rabbit hole of Pauline studies is quite an interesting endeavor.

But no, the jews want to control both the jewish faith and the gentile faith....

You do realize that Paul, himself, is the one that pushes the "Christianity is the New Israel" idea, right? The Christian covenant is the transformation of the Jewish covenant and therefore the Jews are no longer God's chosen people. That's why they hate him so much.

This guy was more of an ubermensch than any of Nietzsche's darlings. He is the person most responsible for Christianities wide spreading: literally the second most influential person in history after Christ, and his feats done with faith, determination and courage are inconceivable to moderns.

Gentiles are of no real account (Romans 11). God loves and still prefers the Jews who 'belong to it by nature' more than the gentiles.

Paul of Tarsus was a false apostle

>Claimed to have received revelation directly from Christ, yet no one confirms this except Paul and his followers
>Claimed to be approved by James and Peter, yet could not produce a letter of recommendation from them(2 Corinthians 3:1-3)
>Claimed to have worked harder than all the other apostles who were eyewitnesses to Christ(1 Corinthians 15:10)
>Opposed by men from James, successor and brother to Jesus(Galatians 2:11-13)
>Advocated for the abolishment of the Law when the other apostles still held by it as Jesus did(Galatians)
>The Corinthians and Galatians doubted his apostleship, dismisses them with empty platitudes, calls the Galatians stupid and bewitched

Jesus Himself, in the Gospels, says more than once that the Kingdom of Heaven will be taken away from the Jews and given to people who are more worthy of it. That being "children of Abraham" is now no longer sufficient to be a true follower of God.

Dubs of truth.

St. Paul was a bipolar incel with severe obsessive compulsive personality disorder and likely on the autism spectrum too, which is why he initially prosecuted Christians with such fervor. Probably the product of a very abusive father and a cold, neglectful mother. He had at least one documented psychotic episode (road to Damascus). And this mentally ill loser is respected in the western canon as a foundational saint of its major religion. LOL if he were born today, he'd be posting on r9k and cussing at his mom if the tendies were overcooked. Of all the characters in the Bible, he is the most vile and repugnant.

[Anonymous No.22124398]

>>22124393
No, he was just a Jewish liar and corrupter of the Gospel

[Anonymous No.22124444]

He was accepted by the rest of the Apostles to the point that Peter and Paul are often depicted together in iconography. I don't understand why people see him as some sort of hijacker of Christianity - without the apostolic agreement he would never have gone anywhere.

They were also martyred on the same day, and because the two are basically the two most important post-Resurrection Christians, they share a feast day in the ancient Churches.

Nobody inspires seethe like he does. For a long time, anti-Christian people liked to call him a self-hating gay man (to the point it was one of the most cliche blasphemies), but it seems calling him an incel is the new thing among both right wing pagans and progressives.

Incredible dude, nobody makes degens seethe like Paul. He was definitely a genius, being able to write those masterful letters while running around Asia Minor to build up the Christian church.
