Can scripture be allegory and still be true??
Manage episode 423050865 series 3123988
Today we explore a well-debated question: Can scriptures be allegory and still hold truth? We explore different perspectives on religious texts, examining the balance between literal interpretations and allegorical meanings. We discuss how stories and parables can convey profound truths without being historically factual. While there are lots of thoughts about the Bible, we also talk about whether or not the Book of Mormon relies on literalism. Whether you're a scholar, a believer, or just curious, this conversation promises to challenge and inspire your understanding of spiritual narratives.
