First off, Paul wrote thirteen books and was one of the most important figures of the early church aside from Saint Peter himself.
Secondly, the Old Testament is part of Christianity and is necessary reading. Christ's birth was prophesized in the Old Testament.
Thirdly how the FUCK did this retarded drivel get 6 upvotes?
dude calm down. not everyone accepts the religious canon as it is.
imo the early church was infiltrated by saul, sent from roman authority, to control the movement. classic controlled opposition. also, saul publicly and viciously tortured most of the disciples first. then he saw the light somehow, yeah ok fuck that shit.
plus he muddied up the morals jesus taught with his absurd and overly complicated rules about jew vs gentile this and that meat dont eat it, circumcise dont circumcise, work on the sabbath or dont blah blah blah.
Jesus is the principle founder of the faith and his words alone were enough to cause the entire region at the time to plot to stop him and his movement.
nothing else is necessary.
