@kriegjaeger The concept of creation is very much open to interpretation. If the classic Creationist version is actually just an old story, gradually corrupted over millennia by word of mouth story telling, then yes, creation is actually what happened, ie we did not suddenly appear as we are now.

There are some even more examples of amazing technology than Gobekli Tepi that really stretch the imagination. One of the suggestions is that we might be descended from aliens which if you think laterally might account for the Noah's Ark story?

@kriegjaeger Given that there seems to be good evidence that chunks of the original are missing (or have been deliberately lost) one has to question how some of the rest as it was translated over time. The other thing is that it was only ever in a written format relatively recently in historical terms. As I have stated previously, depending how you look at it depends how you read it. I have heard the other religious book from the same part of the world described as an ancient survival manual by someone who worked out there for many years.

Most archeologists only know what they were taught and we all know what they say about teachers being those who can't and those who teach teachers being those who can't teach teachers?

@annother3350 My thoughts on Noah are based on the fact that most ancient myths have a tiny bit of truth in them as they are the results of details of events / things being passed on by word of mouth over many generations. This will always mean you get what is often called "Chinese whispers" - Enemy in advance, send reinforcements becomes going to a dance, send three and four pence for us older folks. If the spaceship the aliens landed in gradually became interpreted as a large ship, because that is what people knew and the animals were just the DNA that would make sense. A slight alternative might not have been true aliens but former inhabitants of earth that had escaped the cataclysmic events and returned afterwards? Again, these Chinese whispers might even account for the creationist story if you think about it?

@annother3350 I was not familiar with that "story" (i.e. version of events) but I am aware of many oddities and finds that cannot be really explained without a much more advanced technology having existed at one time.

@kriegjaeger That is very interesting stuff and in many ways tells a viable version of the story. It also just triggered a thought that had not come into my mind until just now. What if it was not one ark from one place on earth but many arks from many regions affected by the floods (of which there is some pretty good evidence). Now this suddenly makes a whole lot more sense of things and could account for how various versions of the story fit into various parts of the world.
