But just imagine that happening 5000 years ago. Embellishing stories like these would happen, as modern forms of discovery did not exist.
Galileo Galilee, and his observations of our Solar System is a perfect example of how time and history has changed, via the discovery of the facts.

I do believe that some happenings might not be accurate. In regard to the flood, I have always been puzzled as to the mention of the rainbow being placed in the sky as a sign that God would never flood the earth again. We know from history that earth has been flooded in certain areas throughout time, however, a rainbow cannot be 'placed'. In fact, it was still raining when they saw the rainbow, so that makes even less sense to me.
I believe the earth was flooded. However, I don't believe the earth existed as it is today. I believe land was one massive area, not separated into continents as they are today. I also believe that the flood started the separation of land into continents that occurred over the last 6+ thousand years. Or longer.
I was actually curious as to whether or not you believed Noah even existed or if anyone else did either.
