Oh, don't worry about me, dear. We've a Magisterium with authority from Christ in an unbroken descent from Peter to instruct unerringly in matters of interpretation.
The symbolic/literal dilemma is entirely yours!
Goes with the territory of "private interpretation".
And you're welcome to it!
I just think you should spend your precious time minding your own confused spiritual business, rather than waste it trying to teach lessons to the Church that, by Christ's mandate, was Mater et Magistra long before you were born and will continue to be so long after you've been caught up in the Rapture!
