Every time I ask: do you believe literally? I get willful moral and intellectual dissonance.
Please see how this clip ends.

I believe that Jesus believed, is what that last gent speaking in this clip uses as his reason for believing the unbelievable story of Lot. He is forgiving a God who is obviously doing evil just because he can blame his poor moral position on Jesus.
This type of willful moral and intellectual dissonance is what I get from many Christians who will forgive their God for things they condemn people for doing.
If morals are not the most important issue for God or Christians, then what is the most important aspect of religion to you as a believer?
Are literalists idol worshipers? The last speaker seems to be one as he ignores his own true beliefs to follow his idol, Jesus even as he doubts the morality and reality of the story of Lot.
