I understood it as he was alive while Jesus was alive but never met him. Being born in 5 AD, annon domino / year of our Lord, meant that Jesus would have been 5 yo went Saul/ Paul was born.

Funny you mention parents, after the death of Jesus his parents don’t come up. Or rarely. His father is barely mentioned after the birth story.

He changed his name to Paul after converting. wiki article if you are inclined to read up on your own https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_the_Apostle

Key Bible verses are (iirc): Acts 8.1, 9.1-31. And Romans, which is a letter to the Christians in Rome. And Corinthians, letters he wrote to Christians in Corinth.

Only slightly joking there. He was Saul of Tarsus, a Jewish Pharisee and persecuted early Christians. He had a conversion and became an early Christian leader. He was one of the first to include gentiles in Christianity. Before it was mostly Jewish people well because Jesus was Jewish. The law breaking joke is that in a vision he was given the ok to eat all foods not just kosher ones, ie he broke religious laws at the time Edit: I misremembered, it was Peter who had the food vision not Paul. But I believe Peter also changed his name, yes he was Simon. Never thought about it much but man they changed their names a lot back then.

Went by Saul then broke some laws and had to change his identity

Who is Luke moody and why would anyone listen to that garbage of a human being?

Don’t you think there will be a domino effect at some point where that is going to happen regardless? I was being a bit of a smart ass but we as a society need to start taking difficult measures to save ourselves. The longer we put them off the more there will be and the worse it will be . IMO
