Mine is the crank answer. I've studied this in too much detail to make a 
personal answer. I am "owned" by the scholarship behind the decisions 
on what the canon is. Like Tim, I love Paul's works, but the Gospels 
hold me strongest. Still, I cannot bring myself to suggest using the 
term "canon" in a personal application. While I won't argue or debate, 
I bristle at the idea our current canon could be re-examined.

The curmudgeon has spoken. :-)
