To what degree should the bible be taken literally?

Just wondering since (in general?) the Christians here seem to be worried about generalizations. I want to find out where you stand.

I'm non- gang affiliated. LOL j/k
I definitely believe in God's word without compromise.. And that the Bible is the word of God, and is true to the letter. HOWEVER, it can't always be taken at face value, and we need an understanding of the whole Bible in order to understand individual verses. While I believe strongly in the Bible, I don't believe I'm "fundamentalist" because many of those folks are crazy and don't really follow the Bible as they claim to!
I believe the Bible, Jesus, and in the two greatest commandments- Love God with all your heart, soul mind and strength, and love your neighbor as yourself. Any other command will stem from those.

Fundamentalism replaced into an early nineteenth century circulate between Protestants to reaffim othodox Christianity against what they theory have been assaults against biblical concepts and doctrines. Evangelism is basically an interpretation of the scriptures between fundamentalists the place Christ informed the disciples to circulate "into each and every of the international preaching and baptising in the call of the daddy, the Son, and the Holy Spirit". It has for sure met with extra opposition than successes in its numerical opportunities. in spite of the undeniable fact that, they (evangelists) proceed the war. Myself? Luthern Protestant- what else?
