The Catholic Church interprets some portions of the Old Testament in non-literal terms. The days in Genesis, for instance, probably represent individual phases of creation rather than literal 24 hour periods.'Probably' does not denote an interpretation...It denotes a rejection of what was said by God...
The days in Genesis DO represent individual phases of creation...And God says those phases are days...And He even goes to to trouble of telling you what a day is...
You're not interpreting when you say God 'probably' means something else...You're rejecting...
