    In a truly logical arguement, one cannot disprove the existance of an artifact. It is up to the believer to prove that it did exist.

    I personally believe the Bible but I am also aware of the lack of real evidence that there was a world-wide flood. There is no world-wide clay layer that would be the residue of a world wide flood. The clay layers that do exist do not have the same geological position from one location to another. There is one clay layer that can be dated to the time proposed by the Bible of the great flood but it is localized to the area between the Tigris and Euphrates river system and is only 100 miles wide and 500 miles long. That flood was recorded in Sumerian history as a great flood but not a "global" event. It is interesting that the tablets that show the record of the flood talk of a trader who, along with his family and trade goods (including some livestock), was traveling the river when the flood hit. He and his family survived and from the story they told they ended up on an island in what is now called the Persian Gulf.

    This history was recorded in the city of Ur which is the same city that Abram was from - before his name was changed to Abraham. The first story of a world wide flood comes from the Babylonians who conquored Sumer and continued to use their written language. (Cuneiform) The Hebrew texts and the Babylonian flood story are nearly the exact same story with different names for the heros.

    That doesn't change my faith but it does give me pause as to the literal translations of certain parts of the Bible. Like the parables that Jesus used to teach, I am sure the there are many parables throughout the Bible.

    How have you decided which parts of the bible are literal and which are figurative?
