Half the people in the world think that the metaphors of their religious
traditions… are facts. And the other half contends that they are not facts at
all. As a result we have people who consider themselves believers because they
accept metaphors as facts, and we have others who classify themselves as
atheists because they think religious metaphors are lies.
