That’s part of what I am asking - if something in the bible is not literally true do you lose your whole faith

There's a lot in the Bible that's not *literally true*. There's parables, songs, psalms, metaphor, simile, poetry, etc. I don't know anyone who doesn't recognize those literary styles. It's when people try to force one literary style into another where problems occur.
