you should start by giving me a good reason why any of those creation stories should be tossed aside simply because they were nomadic, pre-science oral traditions.
You might not agree with this, but I don't think human nature has changed much (like NOT AT ALL) since these guys were around. I have been exposed to various different origin stories, and I find value in all of them.
Just because people think they've discovered the HOWs of creation, doesn't mean they should ignore the WHYs.

I wouldn't necessarily toss them aside. They have value, and equal value. They are like bubble gum. You chew out the value and discard it. You don't make a religion out of any one of them.
I would agree human nature has not changed that much. However, human knowledge has changed a great deal. We know that angry deities don't create thunder or cause a flood.
As for the 'whys' of creation, that is completely up to you to determine. So, carry on the way you'd like. :D
