Are you talking about the Epic of Gilgamesh?

That I am. Oldest known religious text, I believe.

The flood explains the unanswered Christian question; "If we evolved from monkey's, then why do monkeys still exist?"....it's a little known fact that monkey's are excellent swimmers.

whatever epised:
P.S. Given the mountains were not that high before the flood, and the highest was only covered only by 15 cubits of water, but agree the waters in the oceans themselves contain more than enough waters to account for a biblical deluge, if the mountains lowered and the oceans raised, the earth would be covered by over 1/2 mile of water, with the erupting water (fountains of the deep erupting 47,000 miles mid-ocean ridges), it would of also pressed back the oceans, hundreds of miles, along the ridges, causing less rain to of been needed to flood the earth, to cover the highest mountain, etc...

Hang with me folk cause I'm just trying to learn.So from that I assume you mean that all the mountains lay down flat and the seabed rose up so we would have a nice, uniform sphere to spread that water over?And what exactly does...

Aslan is not a Tame Lion

Walt Brown proposed the hydroplate theory, to explain the movements of the techtonic plates, happening quite suddenly by water hydraulics, correlating with the biblical flood, where it says the fountains of the deep erupted, it wouldn't be so impressive, but science itself has proven their is water and fractured rock over seven miles deep into the earth, etc...http://www.cryingvoice.com/Evolution/Hydroplate1.htmlP.S. Its already been accepted by main stream science that water exists deep in the earth. The Russian deep well, and the German deep well over 7 miles into the earth. They are finding fractured rock and water supporting the biblical text. The Bible says that the fountains of the deep were all broken up, interestingly all the super deep wells collaborate that this is a scientifically accurate statement, but then again volcanoes erupt water too. It shouldn't be all that surprising, that the amounts of water in just the oceans, would cover the entire earth, if the earth was smoothed a bit, in that this too supports the inerrant Words of the Bible, that God bounds are what keeps the waters from turning back and covering the earth (Psalm 104), etc...

The theme of Walt Brown has been beat pretty hard in previous topics. I assume that Whatever was involved in those topics.Adminnemooseus

Just a question. What makes you think that this story (the Epic of Gilgamesh) was religious at his time?
Isn't it classified now as a religious story owing is very old age?However, it's a nice "ordinary" story.Denesha

I thought that the Epic of Gilgamesh was an attempt by the Mesopotemian culture to describe the times before human recordings. Although, the Epic could have been comparable to the Iliad, a nice story but not meant to be historically/theologically accurate. Maybe someone else with a better understanding of the Epic can clear this up.

Dear Loudmouth,I agree with you when comparing this with the Iliad. I guess there are some knowlegdeable specialists on this board to fill up some details concerning.Could we believe the energy to write this? Terrific (with all respect).Denesha
