Taking the Bible Literally
I've always said I take the Bible literally. God actually did create the world in 7 days. He parted the Red Sea. Lazarus was raised from the dead.
Now I'm reading The Year of Living Biblically, and my friend AJ Jacobs says that most of those who claim to take the Bible literally (meaning me) don't follow it literally (meaning me again). "I believe all the stories, but the laws - they don't apply to me."
Hmm...I think this book is going to give me a lot to think about.
