Liberal "Christian" Scholars Don't Like Genesis 1

RT @IvanTable: NPR profiles the debate raging among evangelicals on the historicity of Adam & Eve— @albertmohler appears http://ow.ly/1vwEsi

So NPR asks several CINOs (Christians in name only) why Genesis 1 cannot be taken literally.  Then NPR gives the CINOs the forum to complain about how Conservative Christians won't accept their opinions as fact.  Boo hoo.  So and so is a scholar at such and such university and he says that the Bible should be read as a poem.  Really? See if the Bible is a big book of poetry then we are not accountable to what it says.  

Here's the real issue: if Genesis 1 is to be taken literally then we also have to take literally the fact that we are sinners that will be eternally separated from God when we die.  And the only way to escape that punishment is to accept the free gift of Salvation made possible by the finished work of Jesus on the cross.
