which part is different? do you think your investment will be less than everything you have?
this thing that the historical record seems to be saying...is that...nothing less that all you have is the minimum investment.
but its ultimately an easy battle to win, even when considered outside the linguistic deceptions...
are you the most Ancient? a simple question to answer.

oh isn't that interesting!
did you check to see what would happen if you continued that pattern in later sentences, such as the second line of the verse that you didn't employ?

there are 2 flood accounts in the bible. There. That problem is solved! Both the sumerian and biblical flood accounts are accurate, although I have as yet to find the second flood account in the sumerian version.
Yes, please ask me for more information. mwhahaha

The OP's linked source appears to be extremely sketchy to me as well...

Two? Please explain. I never noticed that. But as always with the Bible, the best things come entwined.

Sumerian writings appears around 4000BC and 'stabilized' itself with pictogram and phonems around 3200BC.
Around 3000 BC Sumerian writing changes : the pictograms drawn vertically are then arranged horizontally.
The Sumerian writing kept evolving until around 1000 BC.
The Sumerians wrote their books around 1000 years before the Hebrews compiled their first scriptures

There is absolutely no evidence of any Sumerian document dates earlier than about 2000 BC. Sumerian texts 6,000 years old? Er, yes... And I’m the Easter Bunny.
SITCHIN FICTION
Now, about that Sumerian Enki document. You have to admit, arguments using ancient clay tablets do, at first, sound scholastic. Even credible. However, in the writings of Sitchin and others, there is not the slightest indication that they understand what they are dealing with. They appear to be honest but unaware of the sinister forces behind this theory. But sadly, in the process, they are unintentionally leading their students and others astray.
SITCHIN FICTION
With due respect, when Sitchin – or anyone else - claims a Sumerian document to be 6,000 years old, he is romancing. He wants it to be that old. But that doesn’t make it so. “There is absolutely no evidence that the Sumerian writings are an OLDER text than the source of the biblical writings. The sustainable evidence indicates the opposite.” The bottom line is this. The weight of evidence suggests that the ancient Sumerian Enki document is a fictious work posing as fact. Sitchin has fallen into the trap of believing it.

I meant to be quick on the topic ... this means using some shortcuts sometimes.
Uruk writing appeard around 4000BC around Warka in present-day Irak if I remember well.
Uruk from which Gilgamesh was Prince around 2600 BC.
Akkadiens wern't counted in as of 2000BC ? Starting with the list of Sumerian kings ? Honest question here, I'm not sure anymore.
About your flood events, you might be interested in Ryan - Pitman theory. For a possible flood around 5600BC.

There's a thing I mentioned about the creation of Man. In Genesis 1:27 God creates lit. Ha-Adam or "The Adam" as both male and female, suggesting androgynous configuration. Now God creates Ha-Adam in his image (Heb. זלם "Tselim") which most lexicons translate into "image", as in "God's image". However, I believe זלם "Tselim" is the plural of זלעת "Tsela". Like I have demonstrated before Heb זלעת and Lat. Cella share semantics and etymology (see www.abovetopsecret.com... ), and this means that God didn't create Adam in his own ribs or in his image, God created Ha-Adam with his own cells. Just like God built Eve from the Cell he had taken out of Adam.
