I have always agreed with that. For those of you who are Christians, I came across this a long time ago, and in my opinion, Jesus is telling us the exact same thing. In John, chapter 10 versus 14-16, He says,"I am the Good Shephard and know my own and they know me. ..... I have
other sheep too , in another fold. I will bring them also and... " . Jesus's best way of explaining to people that would have had no way to understand what and where that "another fold" was, in my opinion a lot of the bible is like that, the words are written in the best way to explain to the people of those times. I read this - and thought wow, people 2000 years ago couldn't have an idea of what he was talking about , kind of like "Let there be light" - which was what came to my mind when the Big Bang theory was proposed - I think it was Science or maybe Discover magazine back in the 70's , the magazine had a cover story on it, I had been reading Genesis, and just thought, "I knew that." and the Science magazine explained what "Let there be light" probably looked like.
