Only because you already believe that, not because you have actual reason to.
But the fact is that the gilgamesh story is older then the noah story.

I think it is more probable that the many stories of great floods originated with Noah's flood.
Why go along with a group that (sinfully and in error) calls all that God does "crimes"?I would have the courage to provide moral leadership.
Theses atrocities committed in the name of God were strictly human in nature. The authors of the scripture justified their behavior by suggesting God lead them to commit these crimes.
Ow yes... That's what that nobel prize was for.... "the darts throwing method"!Hang a calender on the wall,
and throw darts at random,
to simulate the effects of mankind with all of its "wisdom", so-called.
(actually,
probably,
this would produce better results than society has so far)
Oh c'mon, just call it immoral. Most scientists go into the lab in order to have pansexual perverted orgies and if they get any science done it's only because they had to take a breather from all the sin.
How were these settlements dated? Regardless; the flood reached everyone.

True, and the more people and events that 'predate' Genesis the more likely people will be deceived. Great tactic. We only need to observe the incredible changes that take place in our own lifetimes to realize the speed with which societal and environmental changes occur.
Most scientists go into their labs because it's more fun than working (not that there's anything wrong with that).
At 12,000 years old I'd hazard a guess that 14-C dating was used. (We don't have a problem with that do we?)
Who dated that story?
I see you are still in denial of the fact that there are settlements in the andes that predate the timeframe you suggest as well as them being on a higher altitude then your flood story needs.
So, is it easy to breath with your head lodged in the ground like that?
Ya ... "Watch where you're going, stupid!"ANY TIME YOU WALK OUTSIDE. You just have to look down at the ground. It will tell you a lot.
Sounds like you haven't spent any time working in a lab.
But that being said it is kinda true. Work as a scientist is usually undertaken as a passion and less as a drudgery so it is definitely more fun that mere drudge work sitting at a computer all day.
The dates have only been suggested, not proven (here).
No. The Gilgamesh story seems to have been written down first. The story of the great Flood would have been re-told over the generations until Moses under God's inspiration recorded it as it actually happened. Moses was educated but was not the first human to know how to read and write.But the fact is that the gilgamesh story is older then the noah story.

The Gilgamesh story seems to have been written down first.
Winston S. Churchill wrote a book called "The second World War" in 1948.
Shelby Foote wrote a book call "The Civil War" in 1986.
That proves that the Civil War happened AFTER WWII, doesn't it?
After all, the WWII book was written first.
Most societies in the world have a flood story;
not because they were so awe stricken by Gilgamesh that they copied in in their own style, but because the event actually happen.
None of this matters to you. You'll continue to use the same excuse because it helps you justify your rejection of the Scriptures.
