I don't recall the exact chapter and verse, but Christians are actually encouraged to question things.

Because without Him, we are basically sheep with no shepard.

@SW-User I don鈥檛 need guidance. I鈥檓 doing fine on my own.
@MrBrownstone Why even ask if you are going to be judgmental of others' views???

I don't like it when the metaphor is taken too far and I'm expected to submit to shepherding by self appointed shepherdesses on the basis of their out-of-context rantings or their seniority in the pews.
As a basic metaphor, as in 'the Lord is my shepherd,' I'm ok with it because it's nice and cute and it doesn't give too much license to dominators.

My thing is: the wolf is demonized for no reason.
I鈥檇 rather be a wolf. They work together as a team. They defend each other. Their howls sound way better than sheep noises.
Sheep just eat and scatter while frightened. They鈥檙e too cowardice to protect each other.
