Most religious utilize the old testament in its stories (Judaism, Christianity, and Muslims). I think what you mean is multiple civilizations reference the fact that a big flooding occured.

It would be impossible, especially with that times level of technology, to build an ark big enough to carry 2 of every animal that existed. Not to mention, how the fvck were they supposed to get an animal from the north american continent, and preserve it on the ark when people weren't capable of coming here at that time yet.

More than one religion? You mean Judaism, Christianity, and Islam? Um... you do know they are all based on the same basic texts, right? They are all Abrahamic religions.

also something similar (great flood, big boat...) is mentioned in the epic of gilgamesh the first written work so there probably is an 'ark' of some sort laying around somewhere

nvm... didn't read the article

QFT.... Actually even Asian countries had great flood stories.

You do realize that myths reference real events, but totally change the specifics, right? There was a big flood that wiped out the semetic villages in black sea area, but there wasn't a big boat with all the worlds animals on it. Giglamesh doesn't contain a reference to the ark, period.

Gilgamesh contains a reference to a flood stories which is very similar to the flood story story in the Bible. As to what is more compelling, all I will say is that the only scientific evidence found seems to support a flood in the Black Sea area, and not a world flood, so I will not argue that point.

Possibility that main species were only taken into account and that the animals evolved and varied after the flood.

Ok, rigggghhhhhttttt. So in the 10 thousand years since the flood (rough estimate, I do not know when it actually took place), all animals evolved in to what they are now, and somehow made it over to the Americas. There are plenty of animals indigenous to the Americas that exist no where else, and have no direct ancestors anywhere else in the world.

Neither one tells the objective, true story. The israelites and sumerians were both collections of semetic tribes who came from somewhere north of the caucusses. The fact that both of them have flood myths makes it probable that there was a catastrophic flood that forced them and many other tribes to flee. The actual specifics of the myths changed over time, though, warping them into what we know today.

It never ceases to amaze me how gullible some people are.
Noah's ark has been found at least a dozen times so far. Just search for "noah's ark found" via Google.

Actually, the Old Testament also borrowed many of its elements from other religions of the time. The ancient Near East had quite a few religions floating around so stories were bound to get borrowed and mixed around.

then we are on the same page for the most part.

the old testament contains many stories that originally apeared in gilgamesh
also in the end all religions contain similar myths because all religion is is a way for the people to try to explain their enviroment and since most early civs lived by rivers with floods, faced droughts, and basically had similar problems as each other the religions that evolved from these people are quite similar
