You would have to give evidence of that claim for it to be even taken seriously.
The evidence is a tablet with a story on it about the adventures of Gilgamesh and the Ark of Utnapishtim who survived the flood.


You ought to try getting educated on subjects that you know absolutely nothing about; otherwise you just make yourself look like a complete idiot over and over again.

Moron. You are really a stupid, stupid, stupid person.


So there are non-biblical accounts of a flood.

And this contradicts the biblical account in what way?

The Ark builder was Utnapishtim....and there were many Gods.


The God who told him to build the Ark was Ea...the friend to mankind.

The God's who destroyed the world were evil.

So there are different account of - allegedly - the same event.


Prove that this, in ANY way, shows the biblical accounts have been twisted over the years.


Good lord, stupid stupid stupid.

Where do you think the Hebrews got their "Flood Story" from?


Gilgamesh (Flood Story) was known in this region thousands of years before Judaism.

Every culture on this planet has a history of a great flood covering the earth. It is not fiction.

You don't seem to get it.

The Gilgamesh (Flood Story) was known in this region thousands of years before Judaism.

Like the "ten commandments", the Old Testament hebrews took their myth from another place.

And the "flood story" is a myth. Even scientists in the Christian corner have attempted to prove this story, and came up empty-handed admitting that there is NO scientific evidence to provide any reason to believe in the "Great Flood"...

And what's the point?

How does this show that biblical accounts have been "mis-translated" through the years.

It shows absolutely nothing at all.
