Well count me among the minority and obviously disenfranchise. I believe the Bible in a literal sense, strongly. I would rather believe in a literal translation than any non-biblical interpretation of geological history. Jesus be praised

Biblical literalism is actually a new heresy, in response to science. That's the central irony of it. You're so steeped in science that you try to explain spiritual truth, which is inherently ineffable, in materialistic terms.

You're stuck in the scientific mindset and you don't even know it.

“The truth of our faith becomes a matter of ridicule among the infidels if any Christian, not gifted with the necessary scientific learning, presents as dogma what scientific scrutiny shows to be false.”
Saint Thomas Aquinas
