    The Bible literally says it should be taken literally.

    That’s what makes it so funny.

    Even the name says “take me literally”.

    Back in the day, a man would take an oath on his testicles, “I swear on my balls it is true”

    Old and New Testament means “Old and New I swear on my balls this is true”

      Im not religious at all.

      But if I were, I would believe these were written by flawed humans that were inspired by god, but absolutely filling in blanks with their personal beliefs and stories.
