3. every nation has a flood or creation story. if creation and the flood did not happen then they would not have such stories nor would most of them be similar to the Genesis flood or creation.
I'll start with the simplist one.
Sure all civilizations have creation myths and those that live on coasts and where there are major rivers have flood myths, but other that the Gilgamesh epic which come from the same source as the biblical flood that is Sumeria, none of the flood myths are similar. As for other ctreation myths, again there is no similarity.
Some are:
Slain Monster Creation Story - The world is created from parts of a slain monster ( Kabyles of Africa, Koreans, Sumero-Babylonians)
Primodial Parents Creation Story - The world was created by interaction of primodial parents (Cook Islanders, Egyptians, Greeks, Luiseo Indians, Tahitians, Zui Indians)
Cosmic Egg Creation Story - The world was generated from an egg
(Chinese, Finns, Greeks, Hindus, Japanese, Persians, Samoans)
Sea Creation Story - The world was created from out of the sea (Burmese, Choctaw Indians,Egyptians,Icelanders Maui Hawaiians,Sumerians)
plus the Spoken edict Creation story which is what the Hebrew story is But also Egyptians, Greeks, Maidu Indians, Mayans & Sumerians had spoken edict stories.
