I mean, the science from several different fields precludes a global flood ever having happened but i don't expect the general public to be very familiar with that so i'm just interested to hear what folks believe.

The Noah flood is simply a war story that's a metaphor for an invasion that took place. Remember, the places that existed before it existed afterwards without getting an inch of the flood. Read the whole story. Pick up on the dove and the olive branch, symbols of peace.

BTW, the Noah character is the only person in the entire fairytale that did exactly as he had been told to do, without whining about it. Even Jesus whined.

Take some time and read the story. When you come across certain words like "raven, dove, olive leaf" look up what they mean metaphorically.
