The biblical flood story by Noah has been inspirational for millennia. More recently science has uncovered facts about a flood unprecedented in human history, from a time and place that indicate it was the source of the Great Flood experiences and stories. Can this flood story by science be at least as inspirational as Noah’s story? More inspirational? Perhaps a closer look will provide an answer.
