But as one died (fell), we count that all died! Falling takes a different sense here.

...or maybe God is gracious to the one that did not fall...Judas fell, does that make him a true disciple along with the others?

Again, this is a parable, forget the tpyical meaning of fall! The domino falls in the sense that it dies, and so do the disciples. If Christ died, we die with him. But saying it with this analogy might just make it too real! We turn too much of what Paul says into allegorical metaphor, rather than understanding the spiritual reality of it.
