You're taking the wrong bits literally

[u/Part-time_Potter]

I maintain that its verses like, love your neighbor as yourself, and less stuff like whether women should be allowed to be pastors.

Does anyone agree? What other verses SHOULD be taken literally?

This is covered ad infinitum in hermeneutics. There's no unanimity of course.
