good that you read science papers. Both Atlantis, and gigantic floods (including Noah's) are a reality. And not everything you hear from the scientific community is true. It is possible that Noah's flood and another flood story talk about the same flood, but not all flood stories are about the same flood or the same people. And the silly "they just exaggerated" comes from people who usually have no real clue about the subject and are biased on top. Among the ancient Greeks there was a tradition to remember and re-tell stories songs and poems without changing the slightest bit. These people were not idiots, they knew that when it's allowed to change these stories they would be completely wrong soon. And that the Mid-Atlantic ridge was too small for Atlantis is plain nonsense, just take a look at the map I posted above, that's larger than Portugal, nearly as large as Spain, and it was potentially even bigger when the southern plain was also raised above the water during the Ice Age.
