Stories used to illustrate spiritual ideas although often true in the middle get flaky and false at the edges. They are very contrived and accepting them at face value is for the unwary and gullible. That's why I am inspired to write a new variation. If that bothers some and they don't like what I think or say, be sure to complain about it. It's alway comforting to reject those who disagree. It's one of the things many humans do. > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
