    I would honestly love to see something like Paul’s letters, but addressed to the modern American church. Paul didn’t mess around when the churches were acting up.

      Paul also pulled out of his ass all the insane bullshit that modern evangelical Christianity is based around. “Yeah, uh, God hates gays, and women, and also loves the Roman Empire that killed Jesus.”

      I’d argue modern letters to the Christians are everywhere, but it doesn’t matter. Even if Paul were currently alive and nearing 2000 years old people would find a reason to ignore him because what they believe in is definitively not Christianity.
