Holy jumpin Jesus! If anyone believes this crap their dumber than the paint on the wall in front of them.

If you want to take a document filled with details passed on from generation to generation (much like Native American folklore), by much more primitive humans literally, all the more power to you.

True, but like i have said and others, it is about perception. All this account tells us is that a great flood took place the effected a large range of our ancestors. The rest is just filler by our ancestors who didn't know any better.

Fact: Local floodings such as the Black sea flooding are documented long before christianity even existed, the Sumerians, the egyptians..etc.[/QUOTE]
Right and like it has been said the bible is merely just a collection of accounts from human history passed down from generation to generation and eventually put into written form. This quote suggest to me that you think i a group of people got together in a few days and wrote a book. Not true.
You have to distinguish from what is just filler by primitive humans trying to fill in the blanks.
