I suspect Paul would be wondering why we’re bothering to honor or venerate him. His work in Christ as the evangelist and his letters to the church are what are important, not the bones he happened to use up while in Christ’s service.

Catholics seem to really love old bones and relics.

Amen. If someone really wants to venerate Paul, he should read all the Epistles attributed to him. If you really absorb and honor their content, you are a Christian beyond a doubt. Also, the carbon date indicates someone who lived 100-200 A.D. Paul died before 100 A.D.
