Now you've got it! Metaphor is how I think. I think in primary metaphors that group my thoughts, and most of my writing is an attempt to catch hold of the best metaphors. "Babes and sucklings" was not my metaphor, but I used it for it's appropriate qualities. It rings so true about many of the things that I've heard that happened in TF. And I believe that it is out of the mouths of the children of the Children of God that the truth will be heard. If anyone can come up with a better metaphor, I would love to hear it. What do the ex-member FGA community think about all the conversation about anal sex on Movingon.org? Could this too be a metaphor for the realities that these young people now face in their lives?
