Oh, they do fail at literalism, both because of politics and because it’s impossible to literally interpret a self-contradicting series of texts. The point is, they try (self-deludingly, if you will) to stay literal, whereas the “liberal” approach has been reveling in rejecting literalness, branding large continuous parts of the Bible figurative, non-historical, even going so far in some cases as to get rid of the whole OT or Paul.
