There are no bounds once you accept allegory.

Absolutely correct!

In fact, I'm sure that one who is prepared to dismiss sufficient portions of Scripture as allegory could deny the divinity of Christ, or even the existence of God altogether.

So what?

There is only one citation of allegory in scripture.

Augustine introduced the use of allegory to deny
the plain meaning of the Word of G-d.
