Atheist writer Isaac Asimov made a case for the strong possibility that the Biblical writers writing of Eden were speaking of a real geograpich place, regardless of the merits of the creation story, and later I saw a newspaper article stating that a space satellite had photographed a configuration of ancient dry riverbeds similar to that described in Genesis as bounding Eden. The rivers would have met in what is now the Persian Gulf before the area was inundated by melting glacial ice about 10,000 years ago. Is this true?
