Ahh, where to start. . .
First with Christ. Frankly there is not much evidence for an historical Christ, tho, there is no real evidence against such a historical figure having lived either, so I will leave this one alone.
Second point. The flood. If the Biblical story of the flood is to be beleived then Noah and his family were the only humans left alive on Earth. So if Noah and his progeny are the only ones left who was writing all these stories of floods? Besides the MYRIAD of reasons why a global flood did not and could not have happened, how do you answer this very simple problem?
Third point - that society accepts the Bible without any evidence to support it, therefore we should accept it as well? Please google logical fallacies.
First point - There is much evidence that a man named Christ lived. I have some non-Christian texts that were contemporaries of Christ that make mention of a wise man named Jesus. There is a pot making mention of him and his brother (in Aramaic). There is plenty of evidence.
Second point - When the flood abated the people left and inhabited the world. Most did not stay true to God, and many different cultures, philosophies, languages and religions spring from this. These other stories are only perversions from the original. Many studies have been undertaken to explain why all languages seem to trace to identical roots from different isolated groups from different corners of the earth. Two explanations exist regarding how this is possible. One is that the same ideas on language simultaneously sponteneously were created. This is kinda dumb. The other is that they all came from the same language. The same is true of the flood story.
Third point - There is much evidence for the Bible. I can produce some if requested, but there's no time or room for me to start down that road right now. The things that lack evidence are the miracles found therein. I don't make the mistake that many people do in trying to explain how miracles happen, I only offer this point - to deny the actuality of miracles on the grounds that they cannot be explained is to arrogate omniscience to the human mind by saying, "What we cannot comprehend cannot be, ergo, we comprehend all." Don't be among the millions of pseudo-intellectuals that make this claim.
