Either you did not read my comments very carefully or you did not understand what I was saying.
Regarding evolution (common descent), that is an extrapolation from the kinds of changes that we do see all the time. Nobody has observed the kind of changes required by common descent. Dogs change but they are always dogs. Bacteria mutate but they are still bacteria. Humans change but we are still humans. So while I agree that changes do occur, I do not think this necessitates the interpretation/conclusion of common descent. The kinds of changes that we do see are consistent with Biblical creation of kinds and variations within those kinds.
I'm not sure why you cited the wiki article on fossils.
Regarding the wiki article on the flood, I'm not exactly sure why you cited this either. Just because someone, or even a lot of someones, think it is a myth does not make it so. Maybe all those civilizations had stories about a great flood because there was one.
If you want to talk about some specific thing we observe today that you think it contradicts the Bible in some way, please let me know.
