Parables are used so that we will understand.

The word "parable" comes from the Greek "παραβολή" (parabolē),
to any fictive illustration in the form of a brief narrative.


Have you heard in computers, physic sciences or medicine
someone to use parables except in religion and politic ?

...and the same with allegories

Allegory's serve many purposes.

1) It makes difficult concepts easier to understand.
2) It makes a concept more portable from one culture / language to another.

For God to reach as many people as possible with his Word, the allegory is a God-send, if you'll pardon the pun.

Does it matter if the serpent is a snake or an angel? That's missing the point of the story. The relationship between Man and God changed when Adam and Eve brought about the fall.

I am a computer programmer and I use metaphors all the time, when explaining computer concepts to clients or supervisors who aren't technical enough to understand the technical answer.

So you try to tell that God needs allegories and parables to talk
to people instead to manifest his existence in the most clear and undoubted for each one way ??!

and the talking serpent is first important points in the bible which changed the relation Man - God and in the same time
till now ppl continue to discuss, doubt or even laugh at it because this is "allegorical" way.

And you gave in the end your metaphor - product to them ?
Or you gave them /and you wrote first of all / the most strict
done product ?

Not true. You can tell 5 people the same thing without using parables and get 5 different meanings of what you told the 5 people. There are different denominations because people wish to believe what they wish to believe. Parables have one meaning, just one interpretation. Example "It was ice cold outside". It's in parable form. Same with other parables, unless YOU wish for it to be a different meaning.

And you say parables are used for trickery. Then why do people still use them today, even in normal day conversations? If it's trickery, why does everyone wish to trick the other? What does one profit from trickery when saying "She's hotter then a firecracker"? There's no trickery, just parables are the easiest way to get the exact meaning to come out. I can say it's hot all day, and you'll get from that it's a warm day. But if it was extremely hot I could say it's boiling outside. That right there is why parables are and were used. It give more definition to the description of what you're saying.

how many parables are on your birth certificate?

Parable
a short story that uses familiar events to illustrate a religious or ethical point

That's called a strawman fallacy. I didn't say God couldn't appear to each of us, but it would violate God's purpose in creating the world in the first place. If each of us knew, without a doubt, that God existed, how many people wouldn't serve God? A big fat 0. But God wants to know who WANTS to worship him. God wants to know who will put the necessary effort into answering the question that we all ask "Is there a God?"

And just how do you claim to know that? Assuming much?

Deuteronomy 24:16 (King James Version)

16 The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: every man shall be put to death for his own sin.


Ezekiel 18:20 (King James Version)

20 The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.


You should read more on a subject before you post.
"Sins of the father" means that the children of the wicked grow up doing the same things, not that they are punished for someone else's sin.

It's a very simple concept if you actually read the Bible.

And what did the Midianite children do that merited OT Fundy God ordering them slain by Moses? Worship the same Gods their parents did? Who else would they be worshipping and how could they, being children with profound bonds to their biological parents, possibly know that the God of Moses would see this as a capital crime?

Mankind's relationship with God was changed by Adam and Eve. God frequently punished an entire society, when the whole society were steeped in sin. Adam represented all men and Eve represented all women.

Is the plan to repeatedly accuse Christians of being violent, until it finally happens?

The parents lives were so morally reprehensible, that God felt the need to kill all of them and wipe their civilization off the earth.
The children received a quick death, while their souls were morally neutral, it's a better outcome in the long run than living could have offered.

And isn't it funny how the 'chosen' people dipped their toes in the sin of idolatry, but instead of being slaughtered, got 40 years of being LIVING nomads?

I believe my words were 'militant religionists'-- I guess it's not too surprising that that was taken to mean _only_ fundamentalist Christians. But if the shoe fits (and there's a whole lotta history, starting with Paul, to chose from to show that it does)...

Aren't you forgetting the female virgins, who were given to Moses' tribe to serve as 'slaves'? I guess the male virgins didn't have what Moses' men needed, so they killed them? Gee, nothing morally reprehensible about that, eh?

What's really fascinating about the Midianite story is that some Christian historians will claim that the slaughter never _really_ happened, that it, too, was some kind of metaphor in the same breath that they declare the Bible to be literal and exclusively true.

You've never read the Bible, if you had, you would know the above sentence isn't true.

I believe my words were 'militant religionists'-- I guess it's not too surprising that that was taken to mean _only_ fundamentalist Christians. But if the shoe fits (and there's a whole lotta history, starting with Paul, to chose from to show that it does)...

Parables and ambiguity show a wish for unclear perceptions. There is no way around that fact.

The bible is so full of all of the above plus major hypocrisy that it is hard to believe that people have followed it as long as they have.
