I think I'll keep taking the Bible literally... I just won't be so naive as to ignore literary devices like hyperbole, simile, and metaphor. Liberals love pretending these things don't exist. They literally think it's raining cats and dogs.

Did you mean right-wing evangelicals pretend those things don't exist? Quite frankly, I'm leaning more away from the crazy literalist 7 day rapture readings.....

What rapture readings might those be? Point me to a passage or two.

I was saying I was going against that. You never answered my question and clarified your first statement.

I meant exactly what I said, exactly as it is written above. Now that we've cleared that up, perhaps you can share which "rapture readings" you feel are being taken too literally.

All of them! And I misunderstood your first comment because I feel it's evangelicals who don't pay attention to the same literary devices you spoke of!

Just give me one specific verse or passage as an act of good faith... show me that you know what you're talking about.

So Chuck is keeping you from being too wise in your own eyes?
