I went to Catholic school in middle school. I am pretty sure we were taught that that old testament were parables...

The time between Jesus's apparent death and when the bible was written was several hundred years. So between that time and translating it, I doubt it was 100% accurate. Then the bible is a collection of writing that were picked to be published so what did the other stuff say?

Why would anyone take it literal?

The Old Testament books were written down long before Jesus. The Gospels were written shortly after Jesus, and Paul wrote most of the other New Testament books in the decades after Jesus. The Bible wasn't assembled into one big book for a long time, but the individual books were all written.
