I'm not putting the authorship of Acts to the question. I think Luke did write (and readact and so on) Acts, and probably with an approach similar to what he did with his gospel.

Yes, Arch, all religions tend to engage in similar PR. That's a brilliant insight.

Speaking of laughs, try making an offhand remark in HP Group about the fact that Paul did not write Hebrews and Moses did not write the first five books of the OT. Talk about your righteous indignation.
Fun to sit back and be an apostate for a day. It could become a pleasurable habit. |

Paul was likely dead before any Gospel was written.
