It starts with waters. Waters were not created, according to Genesis 1. There is no "And God said: Let there be waters" or anything like that. Waters were simply the starting point.So you have God creating the heavens and the earth, but not the water on the earth?

Genesis does not state it was not true. Actually, Genesis even states that God had to go down to even see the city and the tower and that God scattered them, because the men would be able to do everything.
Other place states that God regretted creating men. Other place states that Jacob wrestled with God and God could not overpower him.
There are many things in Genesis which, if taken literally, would be absurd.

You are asking as if we are talking about it for the first time. We have already been through this like dozen times.So what your saying is that Genesis 1 is just a mythological drama made up by Babylonian Jews ?

What's codswallop is a moving earth.

And I wonder why ? I've yet to see a perfect image/video of the earth rotating that's not either CGI or through a fish-eyed lens or glass.
