Although could be I have different view. And I do tell stories sometimes, mostly when building thoughts on things. So it is possible to extrapolate many ideas without meaning to make statements of belief, but just thinking on things, also why I think every person has to decide what is inspired, and why I don't claim that what I say is inspired, but it could be. Don't really need to know that.
And I don't worry if people are doing parody or not.
My view is that I think reason and faith go together, but that also means I can not see everything said by everyone as to be truth because they say it. And that includes many interpretations of holy text. But once you think that, it weakens your faith, so then you have to think on it, from that I realized many inspired writings include biases from many sources, some good and some bad, and also items with a social context based on the time.
So it became trying to find things I could learn from in many places, from there I started seeing things differently and seeing really good stuff in many places, and the 'bad stuff' really is not seen unless I try to see it now.
So I can find much good comfort and great things in either an honest attempt to share some joy, or even a paradoy, by how I choose to see it, and by finding what might be the attempt of a better thought getting through a thought trying to block it.
Although of coarse I got issues, and don't even think like most people do about what is sin and what is not, because it has to also make sense, and also fit into a balance of modesty in all things, but again that came from reason supporting faith.
So anyways, what was the comment again? Ahh fake posters, there are many of them in many places that are making fun of the entire population, and many in other places also.
There are some songs that I find great spiritual comfort in, even if they were meant to be a parody, and I don't try to figure out if the artist is trying to do a parody or not, why would it matter if I can find good thoughts in the song. That is what I think of as 'the can opener' destroyers being 'tin cans'
I also don't think that people are trying to do parodies, since that might not be there intent, you can't know, since there are blockers trying to get you to think it is a parody many times when it is not.
