If Paul's words are equal to God's, then Paul is equal to God and that is blasphemy.

ohh wow Mark.. The words of Paul in the scripture ARE the inspired words of God as is all of scripture.. The letters of Paul were considered scripture by the early church and intended to teach the new church the doctrine that Christ taught while he was on earth.. all scripture is inspired by God, it is all written prophetically ...

Wow indeed. Are you claiming that Paul's words are the equal of those of Jesus?

Let us look at the OT. The Jews believe that God dictated the Torah. That means that the rest was written by man, however inspired. But inspired does not mean dictated. And the word of God is greater than that of any man, however inspired. Would you say that 1 Chronicles 25 says anything that is as important as that of, say Matthew 5?

Where does Scripture say that all Scripture is equal in importance? Nowhere. Where does Scripture say that man is not as important as God? Everywhere.

"The letters of Paul were considered scripture by the early church and intended to teach the new church the doctrine that Christ taught while he was on earth."

How can you rationalize that the Holy SDpirit infallibly guided the Catholic Church in its early days and then abandon it later? Why shouldn't the same process used by the same Holy Spirit apply to the Catechism of the Catholic Church?
