It's one thing to do the work and arrive at a non-consensus opinion about the
authenticity of possibly non-Pauline letters, but to pretend there is no
consensus, or
to suggest that that consensus has been built on and perpetuated by poor
scholarship
(especially when all you're doing is reintroducing canonical or traditional
"evidence")
disqualifies you from being taken seriously as a responsible scholar, if
responsible
scholarship partly entails at least the ability to portray accurately the
state of the
field.
