Is all of the bible “metaphor”?

Answer from you, <crickets>

Meanwhile ‘literally’ nobody, including no-shit rock hard fanatical Christians and least of all anyone here are arguing all of the bible is literal, which is the nonsense you have worked so hard to refute.

So yeah, Gil you really did a great job with your “proof”. You burned that strawman right to the ground, rebuilt it time and time again and burned that bastard down again.

Meanwhile you utterly failed to support your ‘all metaphor’ nonsense no matter how many people you think agree with you, but obviously don’t.
