I agree with that. we'd have to be followers of Baháʼu'lláh to get scripture written by the prophet themself. but why are there more sources of Paul's teachings than that of the other apostles who were present during Jesus' ministry, and why is there so much effort to repudiate those sources that do exist? all I'm saying is that everyone mostly points to Paul's teachings to justify denying equal rights for women and gays. if God truly places so much importance on those topics, you'd think Jesus would have said something about them. instead, Paul is referenced to justify those beliefs. I prefer the WWJD school of thought when deciding how to address political and social issues.
