I remember when I started reading the bible from an objective perspective. Suddenly, through critical thinking it became apparent how absolutely absurd and unrealistic the bible was.
Of course, anyone can subjectively read anything with the notion I know this stuff is real and reach a biased conclusion regarding the content.

Genesis 6-10 seem to have problems from my perspective, from sons of God getting married to people on earth to Giants, to other things.
I will skip down to Genesis 11 which seem a little more interesting. It seems God for a wisdom knew humanity would race in advanced had he not spread them abroad so he did so.
He knew everything they imagined possible they would have achieved but knew it was not the right time.

Is that a problem for a ghost story, really? More or less-so than flying horses?
