No, it turns out you have to cherry pick to be a literalist, too. It's just you have to arbitrarily decide which verses are "context dependent" and which aren't. This is why two literalists often don't agree on the same thing. Get two of them going on whether or not baptism is a requirement to get into heaven or on the nature of free will and Calvinism if you want to see this in action.
