I'm a Christian, but the idea that Genesis 1 is not metaphorical is completely ridiculous. I subscribe to the well-justified Cosmic Temple Inauguration view posited by John Walton in The Lost World of Genesis One: Ancient Cosmology and the Origins Debate. It makes a ton of sense within the historical context of the writing of the book.
