The start of paragraph three is rather interesting.

Quote:In short, it is impossible to verify the actual events recorded in the Biblical account of the flood. On the other hand, much of the Bible, in particular the historical books of the Old Testament are as accurate historical documents as any that we have found from antiquity and are more accurate than many of the Egyptian, Mesopotamian or Greek histories.

Is the Bible a historical document?

I would say it is, you may not and that's ok, it's your choice.
