"There is no evidence that men were ever animals."
We humans - Homo Sapiens - share at least 98% of our DNA with chimpanzees - Pan Troglodytes.
Your argument is not only invalid, but is blasted out of the space-time continuum as a whole.

"A global flood as described in the Bible on a 6,000-year-old Earth would have left some very basic signs, like killing people, for example. Yet we have records from people that were alive when the global flood allegedly happened. Not only did they remain alive, they continued life without interruption. In fact, none of them noticed a flood."
The civilisation of Ancient China existed during the time of the supposed 'Flood'. They were sticklers for record-keeping thus is why we know so much about them today, natch). Yet, at no time before (certainly during) or after is there so much as one single mention in any of their recorded history (PROTIP: ancient China certainly existed after said so-called 'Global Flood'). Ergo, again, wayne230...:
Your argument is not only invalid, but is blasted out of the space-time continuum as a whole. Indeed, it never even existed right from the start - certainly in terms of your Bible's so-called 'Flood'.
So something/one must be telling porkies, wayne (check one):
[ ] The archaeologists & historians. That's Emeritus Professors of Archaeology and History, wayne. With emphasis on Emeritus Professors. As in people who know infinitely more about their chosen subjects than you. And who can back up anything they say with hard, solid, physical evidence. Proof.
[ ] The Bible.
Choose wisely.
