I agree with you. Catholics, who make up over 20% of the population do not believe in literal translation of the bible. I don't know alot about protestant churches, but there are at least a few denominations that don't believe the Bible to be literally true. Possibly this is bad reporting. At one point the article says literally true and another point refers to believing the Bible is true. There is a big difference between truth and literal truth.

Like you said "BAD REPORTING" ... and even worse ... repeating bad reporting.
Dr Laura's biggest pet-peeve was, if I remmber correctly - gossip. The "bad reporting" is nothing but ignorant malicious gossip.
