Another interesting point that I'd like to see Bible literallists address...the original texts for the gospels were written in some other language (Greek? It doesn't matter) and have gone through numerous translations and edits over the centuries, for example four gospels were included others excluded (Gospel of Thomas).
My point is that the Bible many evangelicals hold as the literal truth is an edited, revised document. Not to say it doesn't have good stuff in it someplaces, but c'mon people give your heads a shake...
