Why much of the bible cannot be taken literally

-Removed-

Your words, not mine.

-Removed-

Your words, describe what you think as if that is the only truth in the universe. Of course, it is perfectly accurate, to you, you and your opinion are the only ones that matter to your opinion.

How can you be wrong about what I think if the only truth source you care about is what you think? You made up quotes I didn’t say and made claims according to how you view it, I am not required for any of that.

It is what you believe about me, all of this is internal to you as you alone are your source.

Are there any characters in the Bible depicted as being backed into a corner [like you have been] where they refuse to testify to what they believe?

And still instead of talking to me about it you make an announcement proclaiming what you think I believe and tell me to defend your opinion!

You have no problem talking about me telling everyone you have the evidence for what you think about me, yet the truth about the origin of the universe and life, that is a different kind of faith. You do seem to have different standards for faith when it’s your positions in life.
