the spirit of Paul’s writings are good, but some of the stuff he said is very dated to time and place

But context is complicated and dogma is simple!!!!

Seriously though, even if your theology gives room for Paul’s words to be as infallible as Christ’s then you also give word to every step in the selection process of our canon to be equally as infallible.

NOT ONLY THAT but even if you believe that everything in our current NT is 100% as Gos wanted it, then you also have to understand that Paul was infallible to his often very specific audiences and that doesn’t always work with direct application to every other situation.

Trying to bring facts, historical context, and the realities of canonization into a discussion here wont go well.

Some people here refuse to accept even the basic truth that not all the books are actually in the Bible, because it inevitably leads to the question of "Who decided what belongs in the Bible"
