I think you better go back and watch it again and this time try it sober. I don't see how even you can be this dumb but then, you always surprise me on that score.
The first two-thirds of the movie is Mahoney getting shot down by experts who tell him that the story is a pile of shit. He goes home and sulks and then thinks that it just CAN'T BE TRUE and sets out again to find someone ( anyone) who will tell him it is real. Finally, he finds Rohl who makes up the last third of the movie and triumphantly lays out his new chronology and voila, the exodus becomes real but only because of Rohl's bullshit.
And, what is that bullshit? Pushing Egyptian history ahead 350 years into the Iron age.

And what is the sole purpose of Rohl's work? To save the fucking bible which is not worth saving.

Quote:New Chronology is an alternative Chronology of the ancient Near East developed by English Egyptologist David Rohl and other researchers[1][2] beginning with A Test of Time: The Bible - from Myth to History in 1995. It contradicts mainstream Egyptology by proposing a major revision of the conventional chronology of ancient Egypt, in particular by redating Egyptian kings of the 19th through 25th Dynasties, bringing forward conventional dating by up to 350 years. Rohl asserts that the New Chronology allows him to identify some of the characters in the Old Testament with people whose names appear in archaeological finds.
