Is this supposed to be the new "anointed" one to which greater curses fall on whoever dares criticize?

A Pharisee who went around alternately claiming to be a student of Gamaliel and then disavowing it. He also criticized Paul when he rode his Camel into the midst of the SanHedrin.

I've always heard his thorn was the lust of flesh.

I think Paul and Lord did the right thing by not naming his thorn.

Because some would have built a doctrine and a lifestyle around running from it.

We all have a thorn and it translates into the same situation.

We deal with it everyday and that keeps is close to God.

No matter who you are you have a vice.

From the looks of things many have the vice of fork and spoon...

My vice is working to many hours and losing myself in the process.

I agree with you. We all have a thorn that we deal with daily.
