What makes you think the “ten virgins” are “bridesmaids for the bride”?

It’s not what I think-- it is what biblical scholars think.

So you don’t know? Do you accept the work of these “scholars” without question?

Your reply reminded me that you once said this: “I come from a traditional that believes that each and every person has direct access to God without the need of intercessors.”

Do your “scholars” not get between you and your chosen god?
