Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

The thing is, even if accounts of the flood was written before the Torah was written, it just further shows that it did happen. The earth's circumference was measured in 240bc by the greeks. Which is long after the flood no matter who you ask.

Oh I wouldn't know about the earth's circumference being measured. The comment about calling Christianity backwards because of some "enlightened" idea that there were mathematicians during the time of (in their eyes) "magic" being reported is insensible. Atheists will atheist.

Yeah. Another thing is that the word used "erets" doesn't always necessarily mean the whole world. If you consider where Eden was likely located (underneath the persian gulf) it would have definitely looked like a global flood of some kind to Noah. I think to say "Bible disproven because I take the flood account fully literally" is a bit silly.
