So to answer your question of "What would Christianity be without Paul" I say that it would largely be the same, in that the beliefs of most Christian churches would still be the doctrines of men (Matthew 15:9). Now I say that advisably, noting that I also have a firm belief that Christ has restored his original and correct church once again upon the earth in it's fullness.


That may be the Mormon perspective but without Paul the Gentiles would have mostly remained Pagan. The Roman Catholic Church would have not come into existence nor the Inquisition. The Mormon Church would have never come into existence either. The "doctrines of men" is a slur against Judaism for that is what Jsus accused Israel's rulers of doing.
