The Flood and predictions.

Maybe not even that. Could be just a yarn that someone made up to impress his grandkids. Could have started out as a smaller story, though, and grew from there, like you're suggesting here.

Since the Bible chronology itself is made up, I don't see the significance. Major floods occur frequently -- what is called "a hundred year flood" occurs, roughly, every one hundred years. A "two hundred year flood" occurs every two hundred years. That a major flood occurred within a couple of hundred years of Ussher's date really isn't amazing. No matter what the date is given for the flood, there would have been a major flood at that time, give or take a hundred years or so.

No, I'm pretty much done with the conversation. If all you're going to do is just make unsubstantiated assertians, then it probably isn't going to go very far.
