@"Moses Didn't Write About
Creation!" http://hometown.aol.com/ephraim7/myhomepage/index.html

"...If we put Noah's flood at 9,000 years ago (or more), why does the
Bible only yield 2,603 years between the end of the flood and the
birth of Christ? The Bible is true, and the "doctrines of men" are false!

Egyptian dynastic history began before 3100 BC, and the Great
Pyramids were completed (yet the interior left unfinished) more than
200 years before Noah's flood. If the dinosaurs and mammoths were
alive before the flood 'fossilized' them, why didn't the Egyptians
illustrate them? They seem to have painted everything else. Noah's
ark floated for 31/2 months after the 40 days of rain had ended.
After the 31/2 months, the ark came to rest on top of Mt. (or the
mountains of) Ararat, which is more than 17,000 feet high!! If the
flood of Noah was not world-wide, what could have contained the flood
to only that region for so long?? Any ideas?? (Is modern Ararat the
same as what Moses referred to?) Can you guess how much rain would
have to fall for the water level to reach that high of an altitude? ."

He's just getting started - these are merely the "questions - he has
the answers in a following chapter, I'm sure. :)
