For those who want proof of the exodus

Fuck Rohl...and fuck drippy for good measure!

Rohl’s book is definitely a case of making the evidence fit – and even more so of ignoring contradicting evidence. As such, it can be dismissed as nothing but a wishful fantasy by a Biblical literalist.

Rohl's book is like a house of cards: remove one, and the rest collapses. Labayu and Amarna is the one card that can be removed, as I showed. In fact, while there is room for correction in the Egyptian chronology, according to the Egyptologists I spoke with, it's a few decades at most, and never centuries.
I know you're not a scholar, and won't know what a red flag it is when a new hypothesis is published in popular press, bypassing the peer-review process. It shows that the author does not have the confidence in the evidence base of his thesis. (This does not apply to popularisations of already existing work such as a doctoral dissertation or a collection of journal articles. The theories have already been peer-reviewed, they're just rewritten in a more accessible form for the general reader).
Rohl isn't even original, Velikovski got there first in his 1950s book Ages in Chaos. I've not read that, but maybe I should, to see if Rohl has helped himself to earlier crackpot hypotheses.
Want the Biblical date for Exodus? I can't give you a real date, as there's no evidence - and lots of counterarguments - that any such thing ever happened.
 

That had to be the best response ever.
