I think the Apostle Paul will be okay with my decision.

Here was Paul's reference I mentioned:

"I know that after I leave, savage wolves will come in among you and will not spare the flock. Even from your own number men will arise and distort the truth in order to draw away disciples after them. So be on your guard! Remember that for three years I never stopped warning each of you night and day with tears." (Acts 20:29-31)

Paul's cultural priority? (Defend against the false disciples who will proselytize the flock and draw away men unto themselves!)

Tell me something, liberalh8ter: If you did something tearfully night and day for three years, do you think it's rather important? So what? We're just to conclude, "Oh, the man who contributed a good chunk to the New Testament -- what does he know about cultural priorities?"

I’m sorry you believe that by my not proclaiming that the wolf **is** Mormonism, this somehow makes me completely discount Paul’s contributions to the NT. I guess I’m looking through a wider angle lens than you are. Have a nice day.
