Dont refer me to the epic of gilgamesh, thats a story.
Dont tell me the necronomican is a history book, because it isnt.
I said the Bible was the oldest history book that we have and you clowns jump right up and say there are older texts.
I didnt say the Bible was the oldest text, I said it is the oldest 'history' book that we have.
Read, research, rethink.
You two are so quick to defend your beliefs that you totally ignore what I wrote.

I only remember going to church twice when I was a kid. Once for a wedding and once for a funeral.
I was taught evolution in school.
It made sense to me at the time, but it left some big questions in my mind.
As I have grown older I have come to realize that evolution is absurd.
It is nothing more then the fairy tale of the princess kissing the frog plus millions of years.
Madness you must understand, no matter what you think about the Bible, it is the oldest, and by default the best, 'history' book that we have.
There is no denying that the 'people' and places named in the Bible exist or existed.
Is the Bible 100% actual fact?
Thats up to the individual to choose.
Does it contain atleast some facts?
Yes, without a doubt.
Whether the flood happend or not, I dont know.
But neither do you, or anyone else.
Im inclined to believe it did happen though.

God may have created more people after the flood in order to repopulate the earth. Adam and Eve were the first He created. It doesnt say they were the only and last.

Since there are people still espousing "The Whole Silly Flood Story" as factual, I just wanted to bump yet another one of my ancient, dusty threads.

secondly the population can easily be what it is today more from a flood perspective than that of your belief. Wheres the billions upon billions of dead bones and why are there not more of those prehuman fossils????

I have always thought the Noahrian Flood was based in fact. Many cultures in South and Central America have the same story at the same time. This is too much of a coincidence.

Cultures all around the world have experienced disastrous floods.
That doesn't mean their stories of the event are all of the same flood though.
