A running metaphor?

These are easy to create if you are in the right frame of mind (a loose one). We like to pretned the Bible is actually a Western. Oh yeah, that stuff actually all happened in the Old West, that's why the thing about the Historic Jesus is so hard to figure out! No more making the sign of the cross-- it's the sign of the noose, and communion is sarsaparilla. Disciples become podners, Gentiles are Cheyenne, Pilate is a corrupt town marshall..... Lee Van Cleef for Judas, let your mind slip a bit and it's easy, so easy..... too easy..... there goes Miss Kitty Magdalene....
