The general agreement is that St. Paul was certainly "inspired" to write correct doctrine, but he did not, as it were, take "dictation" from God.

Mohammad, on the other hand, said he was given "dictation" ~ that the Koran was literally an identical copy to a Koran kept in Heaven, by God, for the purpose of providing mankind with rules.

I would suppose you probably didn't understand my references, so there they are.

I suppose you can believe St. Paul merely passed on a dictated message from God, but that's not the Christian viewpoint on the matter of how it came about that mankind received sacred scriptures.

Well, that wasn't what I said, nor what I implied. But because we actually agree, I'm going to simply drop the whole conversation.

Thanks.
