I'm going to push my friend / co-worker on biblical literalism
Why do you want to push it on them?
Without acquiring knowledge on biblical literalism, the scientific literacy will never be achieved.
You can have your beliefs. But it is wrong to push and try to force people to do things if they don't want to.
Haha who cares about what you think. I will make sure my friend will turn him or herself into a full fledged creationist. He or she should be thankful that bible is the only source of truth.
You should not force people to do anything. What happens if they come to a different conclusion than you?
