The important thing was why there was a flood and that there was a flood substantial enough to be recorded as historic in the first place.
In no way does that mean such floods were caused by a god, or that there was a purpose to them of any sort.
So the biblical account is just a tall tale unless there is some sort of evidence that a god was involved, or that there was a divine purpose to them.
The movie Cliffhanger for instance, is based on a real plane crash in 1977 in Yosemite park which was carrying a lot of drugs. But as you know being based on something doesn't mean the rest of it is real.
Did you read what I said?
I don't care about your beliefs on the matter and I wasn't discussing the factual basis of it.
I was merely discussing what Scripture says and the intent of the writer. If you were saying the Bible didn't say God did it or the reason why then I would suggest you read it sometime.
Then if you want to discuss this with me I'm all ears.
