Don't think all day
Dive in to work
Drive the other way
That drip of hurt
That pint of shame
Goes away, just play the game.

So you take Christianity more as a philosophy than an almanac for the physical and spiritual universe?

No, I don't think the Bible was ever meant to be a science textbook, if that's what you mean. Most scholars that I've read, for example, state that the biblical account of creation was allegorical--simply based upon the writing style of those first three chapters.

How are we to know what is allegorical and what is not?

Like I said, it was in the writing style of that particular section. There are plenty of resources out there to dig that stuff up, commentaries and so on. For example, Bible Gateway has a few decent enough resources.
