This renders interpretations meaningless, because they only tell us what we want to see. I know you don't agree with that, because you feel the material is quite clear, so no need to correct me. You're correct, on the topic of harvest I believe Ra's whole message to be metaphorical.
the problem here is, not any of these.
the problem is on-demand 'metaphorization' and obfuscation of clearly stated information, DESPITE it is not done for other information that is in the same status with this.
noone 'interpreted' and 'metaphorized' orion intervention to this planet. noone attempted to make Ra mean something else, when they said moses was called from a ufo that manifested as a fiery cloud. noone metaphorizes or rewrites maldek exploding. noone comes up and says, 'ra told maldek was destroyed, but it is in fact a metaphor'. noone comes up and says 'we cant ultimately conclude with definitive certainty that positive and negative exists, and Ra meant what they told when they told it'.
but, come things that are pending, important and non-optional, which would directly affect people's lives, suddenly there is a grand metaphorization, obfuscation, and Ra meaning apples when they explicitly answer oranges to a question asking whether it was apples or oranges.
