RE: It’s a parable.

Where in Luke 16 does it say that?

And even if it were a parable ( for the sake of argument ), why is it not something that does not express a truth about the afterlife and the fate of people with the same attitude as the rich man?

It’s a little like saying, even though the bible speaks many times of the brothers of Jesus, since the word could also sometimes be translated as “cousin”, we should assume it really means cousin - espeically if that interpretation is absolutely necessary to support some other beliefs we have about Jesus’ mother.
