I've often wondered if these people who claim to oppose a "literal" interpretation would say, "I oppose a literal reading of 'Robinson Crusoe?'"

*LOL*

I am unable to comprehend it myself...

Maybe you're right and they really meant to say "I oppose taking the Bible out of context", but I'm not sure...

Frankly, it's pretty scary to hear a professed Christian say something like that!

Perhaps they mean to say, "I don't think it's the truth."

They're not really opposed to a literal reading, either. They're opposed to taking it seriously.
