I do not find it ODD, that a Catholic would deny that God created everything in the exact way the Scriptures say He did.

You basically deny the Scriptures are Gods words.

Thus you claim that Paul lied when he wrote,

"All Scripture is given by inspiration of God" 2Tomothy 3:16

Actually you can only find that odd if you are ignorant of Theology.

The notion of “Sola Scripture” is another idea that denies all serious Theology.

The Catholic Church has never ever ever (nor has any serious theologian) argued that the Bible should be read in its entirety, particularly in the prehistory portions, absolute literally.

All serious Theology has always recognized the Bible speaks and teaches in Alegory as much as literal, just as Christ himself taught in parable.

The 100% literal translation of the bible only came about from the ignorant masses much much later, and no serious theologian has ever proposed such a view.

No. I'll repeat I believe that God is the Creator and He breathed life into Man, i.e. gave him a soul.

If you believe every word of the Bible is a fact to be taken literally, that's fine. I must then assume that you believe the Lord Himself is lying in Matthew 26:26. And in Mark 14:22. And in Luke 22:19. Or is that an area of the Bible that should be taken figuratively? Three separate times, from the mouth of our Lord Himself?
