this is and interesting question, we must consider that many of the traits that give humans the capacity for belief are heritable. and of clear evolutionary advantage. so i would say that the parts of teh bible to take literally is entirely dependant on what your parents think....so we should all ask mum and dad...after all its a natural progression... why "because dad said so", why "because god said so"
