The gods were angry at mankind so they sent a flood to destroy him. The god Ea, warned Utnapishtim and instructed him to build an enormous boat to save himself, his family, and "the seed of all living things." He does so, and the gods brought rain which caused the water to rise for many days. When the rains subsided, the boat landed on a mountain, and Utnapishtim set loose first a dove, then a swallow, and finally a raven, which found land. The god Ishtar, created the rainbow and placed it in the sky, as a reminder to the gods and a pledge to mankind that there would be no more floods. See the text Epic of Gilgamesh: Sumerian Flood Myth.
As you admit it is a myth, like the one in your bible. This is not proof of anything actually happening.

a traditional or legendary story, usually concerning some being or hero or event, with or without a determinable basis of fact or a natural explanation, esp. one that is concerned with deities or demigods and explains some practice, rite, or phenomenon of nature.
Mind you, this site doesn't necessarily support the conclusion that those floods were connected to the Biblical flood or even the Sumerian flood
Science has found evidence of it in two Sumerian cities.
You stated that in
Message 43
Then in
Message 45

Did you lie? Hope no one called you on your "evidence"? So will you admit there is no evidence for a worldwide flood? Because if there was I think you would present it.
I personally always search for science, history, etc that backs up my statements.
It may be true that you search, but that doesnt mean there is evidence to back up your statements; as proven by this exchange. Maybe you should find the evidence before you make the statements.
Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts
