They refer to it as a "myth" so maybe. Watch the wording in articles you read.
Furthermore, scientists ever so often solidify the different Biblical historical events contained in the Bible, and when reporters or even scientist report about it they sometimes use words like myth or legend....but intelligent people do not deny truthful Bible facts and occurrences. They know what is being reported is either true, or in some cases false.
The ones using words like myth or fairy tale are the ones who do not realize what "actual and true" treasures they've stumbled upon. These ones are usually the "non-believers" or "atheists".

we've not have been given any thought while the flood exceeded off. Any dates somebody might desire to signify are people attempting to calculate a date from genealogies that at the instant are not even finished yet merely record substantial patriarchs. you have additionally for sure in no way fairly stricken interpreting the flood account. God informed Noah with reference to the up coming flood and informed him to construct the ark. Humanity became this style of mess God chosen to furnish humanity a clean initiate with a righteous guy and his kin. all of us know finished properly God did not intend to wipe out all of humanity, extraordinarily for the reason that he's promised the Messiah to Adam and Eve and the Messiah had not yet come. All civilizations all of us know now are descended from those on the ark. there have been no Egyptians in the previous the flood. You do comprehend that almost each and every way of existence team on earth has a flood tale. for sure something did take place that have been given exceeded down and distorted. The Biblical account is the only one that describes a sea worth vessel however, or a minimum of one that could desire to stand up to this style of flood.

There are many ancient floods, but none that were global as the Bible says. The legend is very old and pre-Biblical in that almost every society has their own flood story. It could be one source for the story, but it's European, so I doubt it.

I would not be surprised if it were the flood that the stories of both Noah and Gilgamesh are based on.

my understanding of the article is that this was not a flood which covered the planet and that many people survived it. it basically says that Noahs flood was a mythe.

It's generally accepted that the story of Noah's ark is a legend born from a real local flood.

It's possible -- I think most scholars now agree that Noah's flood was a regional flood.
