Literalists are almost always members of churches that are Biblical literalists. Almost all those I have met are members of churches in the American evangelical tradition (mostly not American themselves, but in countries I have lived in, but in that tradition and sometimes members of American churches).

I think it is fair to say they are in conflict with the broader church (i.e. the body of all Christians) or Christian tradition, but not fair to say they are in conflict with their own church.
