Sure! The gospel accounts of who saw Christ conflict with Paul's list 
in 1st Corinthians 15.

Many apologists rebutt the claim that the Bible negates a woman's 
status by pointing out that the gospels say that Jesus first 
appearence after resuurection was to a woman, or two women.

Paul, the classic and confirmed woman-hater of NT Christianity, fails 
to mention Christ's first appearence to these two women, which 
today's apologists feel is a very significant point.

This of course is an argument from silence, since failing to mention 
does not mean Paul's knowledge was different than the gospel writers.

However, the silent testimony of such evidence is equal to a book 
about Political corruption in the white house from 1950-1999, and yet 
failing to mention the Lewinsky/Clinton...issue...ah...affair.

In other words, if it were really true that Paul knew of the women 
being the first witnesses to the resurrection of Jesus, his failure 
to mention them and contradict by saying Peter was seen first, says 
two things:

1)  Paul hated women and didn't care to mention the women being first.
2)  Paul's had knowledge of Jesus' resurrection which conflicted with 
the gospel authors.
