A have a few questions for you, lighthouse:
What archaeological evidence can you cite that lends credence to the Exodus narrative? If the answer is 'none', then are you open to the possibility that the Exodus might be a fiction in the service of later royal or priestly propaganda? If so, what effect, if any, would that have on your faith in the rest of your holy book?
Does it give you pause that Mary of Magdalene, a woman who -- to put this gently -- had some mental issues, was the only one the four Gospels agree was there at the tomb? Does that suggest any possibilities other than "Jesus was literally resurrected"?
