I was always taught what Adam and Eve did, not that it was a parable concerning something else. When we were taught that Jesus died after being nailed to a cross, or what happened to Jezebel or that JTB ate bugs, it was explained to us that these were actual historical events with moral lessons behind them.
I can't think of a single Bible story that wasn't related to us as historic fact (apart from parables so labeled).

It seems the bride of Christ has a vexing issue with multiple personalities. Is there a priest in the house that can exorcise this demon? (Sit down, Neo!)
The nuns being brides of Christ was weird enough. But the little girls in wedding dresses for their first communion creeps me out to no end. I was very young when I had first communion...I had no freakin' clue what being a bride even meant....much less a bride of Christ. It's just icky now when I look at it from an adult's view.
