Gotta say (as a non Christian) nothing wrong with Jesus' reasoning and storytelling skills. Just a case of one bad axiom I guess.

To be clear, I wasn't uncomfortable with the implied comparison because I have something against Jesus or the Gospels. I was uncomfortable because I don't want anyone to think for a moment that I am comparing myself to him. (I'm not.)

If it helps, when I said "parable" I had no idea that Jesus would in any way be implied. I had never even heard of his parables before your reply.

I actually replied to you ask who you were referring to, since I had no idea, but then another comment said who it was so I deleted my reply.

I clearly am never going to be able to use the word "parable" again. I'll say fable from now on, even though fables have animals in them, not humans.
