I'm a christian in search of the truth. The noah myth was imprinted in your head when you were young. As Marilyn Von Savant(IQ 230, what's yours?)says: you can convince a 5 year old of anything, a 95 year old of nothing. As scientists it is our job to question EVERYTHING, even biblical "truths" to see if they stand up to close scrutiny, the noah myth is OBVIOUSLY a distorted account of a pakistani farmer, living in the delta region of the Indus River, being washed out to sea on his raft. He was expecting a river flood, instead he got a hurricane storm surge. The story then is a jazzed up version of a Camille Type event(in the 1960's in MS)long before written/recorded history.....You can continue living your child's fables, and believing the universe/earth was created in 4004 BC(an irish bishop's 1/2 a**ed scientific estimate)...or GROW UP and see the flaws of the past.

My IQ is 235. Now you have to place your trust in me rather than Savant. I imagine Satan's IQ is even higher. I recommend you not place your trust in Satan.

Believe what you want to believe. There's enough evidence in Scripture and in libraries and in bookstores and the web to support the contention that Jesus wasn't misrepresenting history. If you choose not to believe Jesus and the evidence, as I said, that's something you can take up with Him.

Sometimes God is not reasonable. He sent His perfect Son to save you and me, for example. Not reasonable at all.
