It has been my experience that people who accept a literal interpretation of the Bible don’t give any authority to the writings of Augustine or other Fathers of the Church.

"And yet Saint Augustine of Hippo disgreed with you about whether the first chapters of Genesis were literal, or figurative."

And Jesus disagreed with St. Augustine about whether the first two chapters of Genesis were literal. I'll stick with Jesus.
