do you want to have a mod delete the thread and start over or should we just answer as is?Damn it. :verymad:
I press the wrong button before I could finish it.
I was going to include:Joseph's 7 year famine.
Moses' plagues in Egypt.
Parting of the Red Sea
Joshua and Jericho.
I don't think they can fix a poll. Quagmire might be able to help you. This is a great idea for a thread and the ones you left out should be included.If a mod can add those 4 into the poll, it would be great. Otherwise I would start over.
Allegory exists in all stories; it is put in by the audience. Some writers go out of their way to exclude any allegorical elements from their work, but it is still found. I believe that Tolkien stated he did not put allegory into the Lord of the Rings stories, but we still read it into them.
We make our own connections to the stories we experience. That is why allegory tends to be a relative creature.
I checked them all without reading the poll properly.
They are all literal, not allegorical.
Sorry I read the poll wrong.
I voted them all in as allegory.
Allegory is present in all of life...
be it fact or fiction.
Now, how many of these "events"
actually occured "historically"...
how would I know?
ok.....
:biglaugh: I can't frubal you again but that is twice you have cracked me up in half an hour.Now you are going to have to bear your testimony 10 times extra today to make up for the souls you have lead astray.
