Next time when some firm wants to print the bible, whatever version they want to print, they should have 2 check boxes before every verse.
The first check box meaning to take the verse literally.
The second check box when you should use it as a metaphor or parable or allegory.
Now all we have to do is let the Christians themselves figure out which verse is what, and then come forward with a unified version of their bible. It would stop all this useless squabble and 1000's denominations. Had they done that sooner it would even have prevented massive killings.
