Some people have theorized it was homosexuality, others theorized it was a manic depression..........

could've been both - we know he had little use for women and disagreed on Jesus' policy of equality for women

or it might have been Peter and others whom the Lord personally chose and taught for 3 years - and who had many differences in doctrine with Paul -

Typical liberal, trying to turn Jesus into a UN bureaucrat. Why do you bother, since you don't believe anyway?

While Paul did confront Peter when Peter was in error, Paul also deferred to the elders in Jerusalem on scriptural issues.

There is no where in the Bible that even suggests that Paul disagreed with Jesus on anything(especially equality for women). Paul did not have his own seperate teachings of God's Word, but he and every other Apostle spake/wrote as The Holy Spirit commissioned them to do so. He didn't view women as inferior to men, but viewed men and women in light of their given roles by God. Another thing The Lord personally chose Paul also on the Damascus road and his disagreement with Peter was due to Peter's shunning of Gentile believers for Jewish traditions. Peter continued to look unfavorably towards Gentile believers because of other Jewish Christians even after the Lord had made it clear to him that He died for Jew and Gentile alike and that all who would receive Him would be received by Him. Paul had every right to rebuke him and had a better understanding of what The Lord's plan for mankind was than Peter(that's why Peter wrote that some of the things God revealed to Paul was hard to understand; however, he knew that it was still God's Word)

Where do ya'll get this stuff? He was opposed to women leading worship as they did in pagan ceremonies. He was trying to remove pagan practices from the Christian churches.

I don't believe that "we" "know" either of those things, at all. I am unaware of any "policy" of Jesus' regarding earthly equality for women.

What a dork you are.

The Lord also personally chose Saul of Tarsus to be his emissary to the world outside Judaism... as shocking a selection as a shepherd boy named David to be King of Israel after the people had earlier chosen the much more impressive (to the world) King Saul.

It's kinda funny.

And you know this...how? Oh, BTW just what was Jesus' policy? I mean the one St. Paul disagreed with.

Stop watching PBS and don't take the DaVinci Code seriously.

26You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus, 27for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. 28There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.
--Gal. 3:26-29 (i.e. St. Paul)
