I'm looking at the PrC now and it also doesn't say that if you use two standard actions on that same shining blade ability it doesn't stack. Nowhere does it say that at all.

The weapon is treated as having the shocking ability, and because it won't unbalance the game, you can stack shocking from the PrC with another PrC shocking ability, you CAN stack shocking from PrC with the weapon ability and you CAN stack shocking from the weapon ability with the shocking weapon ability.

This is not definite, this can be left open to discuss with the DM. My point is that it doesn't say you CAN stack them, and it doesn't say you CAN'T stack them. So I'm not saying that all of them stack with each other even though it doesn't actually mention that, I'm just saying I personally would allow that as it would not unbalance the game in my opinion. And as it's left open for debate, other DM's could agree or disagree with me.

Last line of the first paragraph of the second column, p. 64. "The weapon cannot be made to be doubly holy or doubly shocking." (Last line of the Holy Blade entry.)

My mistake on that part then. But everything else still stands.

Yes, and those ten levels in this PrC could be spend a lot more efficient. I'm thinking of Ordained Champion, but that won't increase your Spellcasting power, like the OP asked.
My votes go to either the Prestigious Paladin, or the Divine Crusader.

It states that "If you use any of the variant classes presented here, the standard version of the class should be unavailable. For instance, you shouldn't include both the standard paladin character class and the paladin prestige class in the same game." So it's not workable.

I know, but maybe it's a friendly DM and he allows rebuilds. I'm just spouting suggestions. It's quite hard to give a Paladin some more spell power, you know. ;)

Well I don't know what edition of the game you are playing but why not just turn your paladin evil, by doing some horrible deed for someone and then become an antipaladin and take up mage once you convert.

That seems quite impossible, since this is D&D 3.5.
