Apostle Paul's Secret Life as the Antichrist

​​Saul was once a good Jewish boy, doing God's work suppressing break-away religious factions, until one day he joined one.  But is that the real story? Read the exclusive details below.

     Once upon a time a working class boy somehow cottoned on to amazing insights and abilities. He wandered across the land performing miracles and inspiring people with a message of spiritual enlightenment and freedom; a real Bodhisattva.
    Religion (then as now) was big business, and this crazy guy was doing hippy shit like throwing moneychangers out of the temple. Not good for profits!
     So the pharisees had him whacked. 
​  But his message continued to spread and the powers-that-be soon hired the fanatic Saul to go forth and root out these subversive cells of Jesus followers.  
    Saul wasn't having a whole lot of success suppressing the philosophy and one day trudging along the hot, dusty road to Damascus he had an epiphany, he got the very bright idea that the way to destroy this movement was to infiltrate and subvert it from within. And so Saul changed his name to Paul, told the christians he'd been visited by an angel of God and was now one of them. 
  He spent the rest of his days architecting the religion of "Christianity," inputting laws and interpretations antithetical to the simple direct message of Jesus.
      In short, Paul was the anti-christ. 
     And the short-lived movement of Jesus, who like Buddha, told his followers to be like him, not worship him; who told his followers that they didn't have to kowtow to religious authority and the weight of its onerous laws; that holiness was already within each of them..... that movement died 2000 years ago. Not with a bang but with the soft whimper of money sliding into an offering tray.
