Yes, they do - it's a story told to young children. Of course, what they're told has a decided spin towards rainbows and doves and god' grace and love, and away from uncounted drowning children.
I have had Christians describe the story as "God's beautiful promise to us" as if it weren't the story of the most horrific act of genocide ever committed.
Thankfully, it's just a story.
