You don't see it because you don't want to, and I'm -certain- that you were taught this but chose not to listen, carte blanche catholicism. It's right there in the black and white. Those stories..which are from the OT, have to be accepted literally. Contradictory claims, such as polygenism, are to be renounced by all catholics. They are fundamental to the christ narrative,which the church has draped itself with. You do not have the choice that you think you do, in the context of being faithfully catholic.
You're trying to weasel your way out of church doctrine because it's made a fool of you, and you don't really believe it anyway. That's the obvious takeaway from any nonsense about taking the stories figuratively rather than literally, as decreed.
"Uses figurative language"- to affirm a true event.......don't just stop reading when it suits you, that's how you got yourself into this in the first place........
