But your posts, some of which were pulled, did not "debate"--they slandered and insulted. The Mods left one of yours up where you say "Paul is a liar." That's not debating, is it?

Obviously, if I believed Paul was telling the truth, I could not be a Jew. If I believed Jesus actually came to Paul and struck him blind, I would have to be a Christian.

However, I do not believe that. Paul's behavior, as described in the New Testament: waiting 3 years from the time of his vision of Jesus until the time he goes to meet Peter, makes me very suspicious that Paul ever truly believed Jesus was a real person.

I don't know if this message will be deleted or not. Is not believing in Paul considered "slander" around here?

That's not unlike Moses waiting 40 years from the time God called Moses to lead Israel out of Egypt before Moses actually went to lead Israel out of Egypt.

God had a lot of training yet of Paul to do before He sent Paul to Peter.
