Again, I am amazed at the huge flap that began with my comments about St. Paul.

Imagine, if you will, an adult with very little exposure to religion, and all of that from the outside, reading the Holy Bible from start to finish several times, different translations. Imagine, after getting to the Gospels, and being convicted of their truth through the very words of Christ Jesus and the narrative of His life on earth — imagine readiug about the early church in Acts — imagine then coming to St. Paul. I agree with Festus at Agrippa’s court, St. Paul was likely mad from too much learning.

Imagine then, finding that whole churches are built on ignoring the Gospels and idolizing St. Paul, as though he were more important than Jesus Christ Himself!

Frankly, I chose the Church that cleaves to the Eternal Truth of the Gospels, the One, Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church.

Imagine then, finding that whole churches are built on ignoring the Gospels and idolizing St. Paul Mary/the pope, as though (s)he were more important than Jesus Christ Himself!

Go ahead. Provide a list of churches that idolize Paul as more important than Christ Himself and who ignore the Gospels and cite the sources for their official doctrinal position.
