Or "not real" in their mind. That's why the churches are intolerant of symbolic meaning. They think it means its not real. To the contrary! The symbolic meaning is the real meaning and the material world is transient and lacking. That's why the ancient Greeks called the heavenly the "pleroma" (fullness) and the material the "kenoma" (deficiency). When you get the symbolic meaning, the literalist stuff falls away and you stop caring whether the stories are actual history.
