Are you aware of the Epic of Gilgamesh? It is the oldest known written story 
in existance, dating from around 2300BC (whereas Genesis as a written text 
dates only from around 700BC). Gilgamesh also contains a flood story with 
some uncanny similarities with that in the Bible. Either the version in the 
Bible was based on that in Gilgamesh, or both have a common source.
