I was just being a smart alec and responding to your somewhat pompous sounding 'this is the way to do it'. There simply are two ways to do it.
Christ's parables were clearly parables. The writer of Hebrews praises David's, Moses', Abraham's and Noah's deeds but not those of any characters of the parables! That arguement could be won by a grade six student in a primary school debate. Genesis clearly aims to describe the origin of things and a world wide flood that deluged the world.
We have a book claiming quite openly to be the revelation of God to man. Why not believe creation and the flood if one can belive in the resurrection of Christ?
If Christ was really raised we live in a very differnt world than the one a real evolutionst believes in. This world is one with the Triune God who raised his son who died on a cross for the sake of mankind. Why should Christians doubt the flood? It is utterly, utterly ludicrous IMO.
