Nora, you could never "bore me," and with careful clicking I did read all your replies. I believe you are much more knowledgeable than I am in many of these areas so I am learning from you. 

I agree 1 and 2 Tim are thought to be not Paul. And yes, we don't know who Paul was angry at with his remark 'super apostles;' however, I do get the impression that Paul did not like Peter much, and Paul did not spend much time socializing with the Twelve.

Did you know, one of the major arguments in JPII's MD is that Jesus spoke to 'apostles' in John 20:19-23, but no, Jesus spoke to 'disciples.' However, the NABRE, perhaps to support MD, says, "The disciples: by implication from Jn 20:24 this means ten of the Twelve." No. In 20:24, Thomas as "one of the 12" just means Thomas was a member of the 12, not that other members were necessarily present.

I am very seriously ill and so I am cheering you on, Nora, yay, yay, yay, Nora, keep on writing, keep on striving !!! don't stop !!! God bless you !!!
