These folks do not like some of the things Paul has written; claiming they go AGAINST what Jesus taught.


I am afraid I did not make myself clear, I have actually heard it said that if not for Paul there would be no Christianity.

So it makes some people come to resent Paul

Some of this is brought on by the people who preach nothing but Paul, and claim that Paul was THE apostle to the gentiles.

Most of us realize that just because the other apostles did not write letters is no sign of slackness.

When I hear some one putting the 12 apostles who Jesus chose down, I can see that they can only get their attitude from one place and that would be Paul.

No one puts Paul ahead of Peter or John or for that matter even Phillip or Steven who were not even apostles with out an argument from me, I might lose but they will get it anyway.

Yes; we all have heard this; or something like it...

If it weren't for Protestants; you'd not have a bible in your hands to read

If it weren't for us Mormons; you'd not have a bible with the errors taken out

If it weren't for us Wiccans; you'd not have a Satanic bible...

If it weren't for us blah, blah, blah; you'd not have yada, yada, yada...


Everybody wants to crow about what They've (their group) has done; thinking the world revolves around them and their works; while forgetting that there are 7,000 out there that have NEVER bowed the knee to ba'al!
