Native Americans were already spread throughout North and South America, Australia was inhabited, China was an Empire, Egypt was an Empire, and no one seemed to have noticed this flood?
Why is that, religious types?

Wrong history.....
The flood happened whether anyone believes it or not.
If God said it happened....it happened...no questions asked.

Its easy to believe that there were dinosaurs
because of the bones found.
But yet fossils of sea creatures found on
major mountain ranges, petrofied trees in the dessert,and sedimentary layers of out of place dead emboidments, cant hold the
enough evidence of a flood.
If you think about it every place on the planet has been flooded at some point.
Wether it be all at once or every portion
of the planet at different times.
How can either of us physically prove it did
or didnt happen?
The ever changing earth is covering evidence everyday.
Even of ancient civilizations before the flood because of floods and volcanos etc..
Not only that man lies period.
What can we believe anymore?
The bible is the book of prophecy is the only thing, because of the everchanging world we have to have something solid to stand on as in expecting what is written to
happen to happen and why there is seasons
of struggle and our relation to and why.
I believe there was a flood not becasue I can proove it, but because I believe it.

Lawrance R .... the bible does not explain what is the flood all about, it just say because some imaginary figure did it.
Anyway, I had never seen a record of great flood that floods the earth. There are major floods in history all around the world, but that does not proof anything, just natural disasters.

Why just 5,000 years ago?The geological evidence set it much farther.An in many cultures speak about the flood.You need to look into it a little more.

If you were a real priest, Guido, you would have gone to seminary, and you would have been taught that Catholics don't interpret the Bible in a "literalist" sense. You would have understood that God can still reveal the truth about Himself and His salvation even through the incomplete theological reflections of a community that was trying to make sense of its own history and some of the legendary accounts that made up the understanding of that people's identity. You would then have been taught not to fall into a strict fideistic interpretation of the bible that rules out historical criticism nor a strict rationalistic interpretation that rules out any possibilty of inspiritation.

because the bible drew upon many myths so that they could establish their own dogma. The fact that many Christians say that this has occured in many cultures proves the fact that the flood myth is borrowed from elsewhere

God is the God of the Hebrews, not the Hebrew God. The flood is well documented throughout out the world. The fact that you choose to reject its validity is your choice.

I know the answer, you know the answer, but no amount of reasoning is going to make the unreasonable believe the answer.
There was no damn flood.

It's because this story, like all stories in the bible, are imaginary.
They're just parables designed to illustrate a point.
Only the terminally stupid think they are literally true.
(thanks to primoa for proving my point. "if it's in an outdated book of bronze age jewish mythology, then it MUST be true. *sigh*)
