Hmm, idk who and why they thought of it as metaphor but the probl with that is that metaphor could mean anything. You cannot base a worldview on metaphors. Metaphors are like the aesthetics of decor, not the resistance structure of a building. And I really think many believed and still believe Genesis and Revelation, from the beggining. Allegory vs literal meaning has been a continous battle or so it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No friend, not luke warm at all. 0 degrees Kelvin would be more accurate. "I saw how greatly he (we) suffered the requirement of being clever.

Could you clarify on what exactly you are trying to argue, be that an argument for the faith, epistemology, et cetera? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
