My favourite is people who think the King James Bible should be taken literally.

Or, you know, taking any Bible literally. I'm pretty sure everyone in this thread would agree to that.

Yeah but you can understand why people do it. Not having to think for yourself, not having to deliberately create your own morality or history or identity, that appeals to a lot of people when this world is so terrifying in its beauty and chaos. It's not something we should just scorn as if it's the act of a stuttering sheep, everybody does this to a greater or lesser degree. Just not necessarily with a religious text.

I'm pretty sure it's literally impossible to take the Bible at its literal word nowadays, anyway.

Nothing is impossible, particularly when you're including faith as a variable.
