Quote: How did each tribe stay in tact when children were bought and sold by the Egyptians (according to Christian mythology not historical fact.)What makes you think they all where? The vast majority were wards of the state. very few people owned slaves, as Egypt owned everyone including Egyptians. (At least in the time span we are discussing of the middle kingdom.)
Quote:I've heard it said that Judaism did not exist until after the common era. I haven't found enough evidence to give credulity to this assertion, but if anyone here has evidence, please share it.To say this is to ignore middle kingdom Egyptian record of the 'brooklyn papyrus' which names 100 hebrew specific names as slaves but also gives an account of the demand pharaoh had to make 'bricks without straw.'

Quote:if in fact, Moses authored the Pentateuch, why does he call god Elohim in the first chapter of genesis but Yahweh in the second chapter? and if Moses did not write it, what else about the Jewish story is a big fabrication?Elohim, Yahweh, Adoni are all title's/Names of God.
Elohim basically translates Lord.
Adoni= the word God
Yahweh= the covenant name of God which to the OT Jew was forbiden to say.
So the other two were generic terms referring to God that could be mentioned without taking or using the Lord's name inappropriately.

Quote:And why the crying fuck does my stupid assed browser automatically capitalize the words Abrahamic, Elohim and Yahweh?Because it understands these are names and names should be capitalized even if you don't/are intentionally trying to show disrespect.
