Where you think it makes sense to end

It's no secret that religion reinvents itself over time to be able to exist within the changing society (when trying to make sure change doesn't happen fails anyway).
When I was younger literalism made more sense to me because either it was all true, or none of it was. Anything in between meant a subjective decision based on opinion rather than on what was explicitly written. Literalism funnily enough seems like it would appeal more to a person who likes science.
