> original christians (at the time of Paul) were at odds in practically anything, including the idea that Jesus came in flesh (you will find this being condemned in the new testament itself).

What are you saying is being condemned in the NT, exactly?

> Paul (who never knew a real Jesus, as he confess by the way).

Where does Paul confess that he never knew a real Jesus?

In Galatians 1:12 to 1:16, Paul affirms that he didn't lean about Jesus from flesh and blood, but from God's revelation. In no moment Paul says he ever saw a real Jesus, only his "divine revelation", which is a big confession from someone who lived in Jerusalem during the supposed ministry of Jesus. Moreover, given his age he should have been himself among those who killed Jesus, but he never mentions this little fact.

iirc, he actually didn't see anything, supposedly just heard a voice.
