I say:
I guess I don't understand why Paul wouldn't have a right to write his book
- Clear, from his message, he is writing his own work because he was
inspired by the themes of GR - Sortta like if one were to read OTHELLO and
decide to write a modern play about the impact of jealousy - Surely you
don't imagine that GR is the last word on the subject

Perhaps Paul should just let his text stand on itsown and let his readers
discover the the comparisons to GR
