Who decides that exactly ? Who decides what has to be taken litterally, and what is myth ? And how do these people know they're right, compared to the other people having a different interpretation ?
I mean, if you believe the Bible is sacred, transmitted to us by God, who are you to say that some parts are myths ? Shouldn't you believe it to the letter ?
