Why shouldn't you take the bible literally? How should you take it? Why wasn't it written clearly enough for people over the past 2,000 years - longer in the case of the OT - to realize that this is the case? Seems like a pretty major screw up by the authors considering all the harm the literal interpretation has caused.
