Like it originally said "demons" throughout the story but some Greek who actually knew what epilepsy was inserted it to try and give the tale some credence? And then the entire mess of rubbish never saw an editor to fix the bugger up? The pious would never commit such fraud!

One more reason that the Bible isn't allegory. It isn't coherent enough.
Well if it isn't allegory, and it isn't literal, what exactly is it?

A poorly written, rambling, thrill, dissembling manifesto.     It is far too crass and blatantly domineering in spirit and tone to ever warrant the name allegory.
