Very authentic for the Early Bronze Age!
Maybe we should insist they pay more attemption to authenticity so it won't float and will fall apart.

None of it is even remotely possible.
I won't abuse the expression "it isn't remotely possible" by wasting it on anything biblic.

Noah may of been a normal farmer with a boat which he must of had available to him and for which he could quickly board his farm animals on. Not saving the fucking planet with a wooden ship that cannot possibly float due to it's size because wood can only handle so much. Not to mention all the other problems.
Quite simply, the so called 'global flood' never happened.
Why give biblical flood the totally undue benefit of believing it has some extremely tenuous connection to any actual specific event? If I said I was born out of a slit on the side of the Buddha would you look for any tenuous connection with a specific event to explain why I came up with the bullshit? Or would you just write it off as total bullshit?
It seems far more likely that some stone age masturbator simply ran away with vague and generalized knowledge that such a thing as water on occassions flow on land where water normally doesn't flow. There was no particular memory of any exceptionally large flood which can conceivably have specifically motivated the bullshit.
