I agree wholeheartedly with your first statement, but I don't
think I quite understand your second one. What exactly do you mean by
deity and authors having the authority to assign secondary meanings to
their work? Do you mean that they there is a superficial meaning and
a deeper underlying one? I'm sure that many authors do that, but how
exactly does that relate to what we were talking about? How would you
apply this to the science in the Bible issue? I'd be interested in
hearing what you would have to say about that.
Please thank your ego, superego, and id for welcoming me, and
thank you for the book recomendation. By the way, have you ever heard of
St. Augustine's weird interpretations? My dad read one to me the other
day on Augustine's interpretation on the parable of the sower.
