Surely Paul the Baptist was far more influential than Jesus - there were quite a few crazies wandering around in those times telling people to sell all of their things and follow them to paradise. It took quite a bit of admin and organisation to form a religion out of the stories and rumours that were left.
- astine 13y agoI think you mean Paul/Saul of Tarsus. There is no "Paul the Baptist." John the Baptist died before Jesus did. Paul of Tarsus was certainly one of the most influential of the very early Christians, but by all accounts, Christianity has already taken off before he joined and already had an organized leadership.
