       I would say, though, even if they were it would not matter. We really don’t know for sure the exact date at which the first two chapters of Genesis were written; it could have been before all the other stories and just handed down to Moses. We know we have them by approximately 1,500 B.C. Even if Native Americans or whatever early tribe which spawned from the Flood of Noah had come up with a creation story before Genesis 1 and 2 were written, it still is nothing like the creation story we find in Genesis. The Genesis account is a very methodical and logically reasonable account of the creation, of which there is nothing mystical or hard to believe about it. There is no allegory, and that is key because most other creation stories contain allegory. And besides, remember behind any other form of religion there is a demon. That’s what the Bible says (see 1 Corinthians 10:18-22). And therefore, it would only make sense, if a story does seem to be similar in some aspects, for the demon to try to copy, or imitate, the real thing.
