Christ told parables, so did many of the OT writers. It's clear that many tales of lore were passed down and numerous groups gave them their personal spin. It's not so much the story be true, but what truth is being taught in the story. If people want to believe the earth is 10,000 years old or Noah's flood was a literal event, fine with me. I look more to what stories are teaching.
