I said dated, not outdated. There is a difference.

There is plenty of evidence of a global flood, but that is not why I believe in the Genesis Flood. That event is revealed in God's Word.

Many of the most trivial details of the Bible are confirmed by archeological discoveries, not that the Bible needs it.

Thanks for your response. And I have no desire to affect anyone's faith. However, I would note that "many of the most trivial details of" Greek mythology are confirmed by archeological discoveries. As for the Ark story (not addressing the spiritual/religious aspects of this story), the lurker may wish to look at these sites:

Believing the Biblical Flood:

Noah's Ark Search

Ark Search

Ark Discovery

Disbelieving the Biblical Flood:

Talk Origins FAQ on Noah's Ark

Skeptics

But I also need to point out what the refusal to face facts on the basis of "faith" can lead to.
