You being sure makes you someone to listen to because you’re an authority?
I'm sure about what I do know because I've lived it.
I'm an authority to myself.

I cant make anyone listen to me and I would be wary of anyone who did without being EXTREMELY circumspect.

this text, as well as many other spiritual, religious, and philosophical texts sound (to my experienced ear) as if written under the influence of datura, or perhaps peyote...
some hallucinations can seem extremely real...

as to whether or not the text is describing a literal or a metaphorical experience, i was not there,
and so i do not know...

Than on balance I would say C3 is being honest, and you sound well, I cannot come up with a word that isn’t very insulting.

Calling me dishonest?

You shroud yourself in mediocrity and 'whateverness' .

If you disagree , then disagree. Make a point.
Being wishy washy doesn't serve anyone well, especially yourself. Grow a pair

1. Do you know which parts of the Bible are literal?

2. How can you tell when a passage is not meant to be taken literally?

3. What do you believe the wrath of God refers to?

Nope I said C3 response was an honest answer as he described himself. You gave one about yourself I thought showed a touch self importance. Did not suggest dishonesty that word was not my intention at all. I didn’t even want to say anything till you demanded I did.
