The first story cited by AIG has none of those elements.Like I said, not every nation had a Noah but there are stories of one man saving his family and a bunch of animals.
It just means that flood stories can't be assumed to be the same as the one in the Bible. We can't just make up stories to fit our wishes.How so? Yes, there have been catastrophic floods all over the world and there are still catastrophic floods all over the world. It doesn't mean that a worldwide flood didn't happen.
"Faith" doesn't include making up non-Biblical stories.that's not really examining history that is seeing history through the eyes of faith and not necessarily evidence.
That wouldn't explain why people of other groups wouldn't know. By the creationist revision, all humans are descended from Noah.What if the creation model is only considering the history of the Hebrew people?
Which means either there was one big flood all at once, or there have been many catastrophic floods in many different places. Seeing as we have historical records of many of those, the latter is really the only choice we have.
Comes down to evidence. Lots of floods fit the evidence. And we have neither Biblical support nor physical evidence for a global flood in human history.Does it have to be either or?
