Right.... 'cause radio carbon dating is completely false, evidence of pollen records are wrong, the absolute LACK of evidence of any cataclysmic global flood is not glaring, the LACK of water available to create such an event is not glaring......

Yep, all that just isn't there.....

Just like the history of the flood parable didn't pre-exist the Old Testament by at least a thousand years and hasn't been tied directly to a Black Sea flood that did destroy an entire culture...... and from which flowed the parable as a record of THEIR "world" being destroyed.....

Right......
