I don't know that this is a denomination question. I'd have to think this is a church by church thing (though I can't say I've even been to a church that believed in a literal interpretation of genesis). Many mainstream Christians (at least the ones I know) think that a literal interpretation is kooky. I think you are ready for a new church - shop around, I don't think your current one is helping you.
I suspect that your minister will be intractable about his view and asking him might just end up in an argument. Personally, I wouldn't bother.
A caveat - I'm an atheist, so take my advice with a grain (maybe a pillar) of salt
