Are you becoming so anti Biblical that even if my belief coincides with yours, I mustn't use it to agree with you?

Thats funny someday..

But the same applies.. Must i use it to agree with you?

Story, Parable.. all the same.. Open to Interpretation and then its safe to say it shouldn't be used as a means of telling people what is truth for everyone only for oneself unless their is something more credible to submit than another parable in the same book of parables.

Sidenote: Some dont think its a parable they think its literal.. and some dont think its either.. because no one can determine if it was a parable or literal.. so if it was used in a court of justice it would be thrown out as being insufficient
