The point here is that the only way to discount the story of Noah and his ark is to first establish that God doesn’t exist.

Do you discount the creation stories from other religions?

Multiple different accounts which exclude each other logically cannot all be true.

The laws of logic tell us only one can be true.

This fact doesn’t establish any particular account as true, but it does establish that we can’t rationally believe all of them.

For example, if I accept the pagan (Greek) account of creation, then I can’t accept the Christian account and vice versa. (So my answer to you is no, I do not.)

How one arrives at a particular belief is a separate process.
