So the ACTUAL story of the worldwide flood is also made up.I'm sure they thought it was world wide. Just exactly when did man know the extent of the world, Einstein?So the story of Noah is bullshit, but a worldwide flood did happen? Got proof?Ummmm.... no, Genesis is an allegorical account of actual events.A conundrum which points out that Genesis is more apocryphal than true.Did God creat Adam and Eve ? or did he create Adam and Adam ? or Eve and Eve ?
Who did the children of Adam and Eve marry and have children with?
(by the way the answer to your question is 'no')
Another conundrum is that, dating back using events, the world is only 6000 years old according to the Bible.
Part of the problem is that Moses is said to have written the first five books of the Bible, a timeline of about 4000BC to 1500BC. The 2500 years in between weren't necessarily written and, probably, were passed around the campfires by designated storytellers as customary among many human tribal societies. Like the game of "Telephone", 2500 years is a long time to misconstrue events.
As for proof, every ancient civilization has an account of a massive flood. Heck, the account of the flood was encoded as symbols in the written Chinese language 4500 years ago, numb nuts.
So what about making a woman out of a man's rib? What real event is that depicting?
