no. jesus never spoke in metaphors. you dont understand the simple logic of what he's saying so you think "it must be a metaphor!". if you believe something he's saying is metaphorical and cloudy instead of literal and specific, you suffer from a lack of understanding and even more lethally, a lack of knowledge. the typical thinking of a fool "its too simple, so it can't be so". sometimes, doing something simple is the hardest thing you can do.

now on a seperate note, what you've said before was illogical. by your logic "going to the father" what ever you interpret that to mean, would make you a god and more powerful than jesus, which no one in biblical history has ever said so.. once again, your view comes from a perspective of non-understanding and "half knowledge" meaning you think you get it.

please dude, i gave lots of refferences you can look up to gian true knowledge. if you are really in persuit of knowledge as you claim to be (you're really jsut in persuit of "being right") equip your self with it. look up the side of the people who disagree with you, and agree with you. if you try to filter your input in one position or another, you're a fool.
