I was hoping Tim would face the question without such close proximity to the answer but since it is here lets expand on it.
Tim ... the story of Genesis is a plagiarism. It is a copy with editing. Of the Epic of Gilgamesh interspersed into other known stories. All of which are far older than the creation of the Torah by the Jews.
They got the story of Noah from the Sumerians' epic. They got their single god from the Egyptians.
There is nothing original here other than the make-believe stories created by religious organizations and cults to explain the text and keep people from looking behind the curtain.
Read this Tim:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Council_of_Nicaea This is the part of your religious heritage that was censored. Pay close attention:
