I’m not going to waste my time arguing mere reality into being before we can even start a conversation.
Tighten your shit up, man.
As to the rest, it doesn’t -matter- what any of you decide to plant in the metaphoric and literal categorizations. All of you are required by faith to place some things in the literal categorization, and all of you are required by faith to place confidence in defining literalism.
Is Christ a metaphor? Is god having created us a metaphor? Is god a metaphor? Is gods intervention a metaphor?
No, ofc not, and even Our boy Ori ( who wouldn’t get kicked out of any church for saying that, don’t be absurd, they need asses in seats) believed in the literalism of both creation and salvation through Christ. That he was a cafeteria believer is likewise unsurprising, all of you are and all Christians have always been so.
