On the parables, I just love to see the symbolism as well. I think we have to remember that when Jesus was on earth, he was on a mission. He knew how it would end. I wonder how much he revealed in private to the disciples and how much was not written down? That will be my questions when I get there. Well among my questions.
I have a date with another FReeper to question St. Peter (one of my favorite Saints), when we get there.
My priest says that we will have no questions when we get to heaven. They will all be answered.
