Real archaeology has trashed the fucking bible.
200 years of digging in Egypt has not revealed ANY evidence of any Hebrew slaves. What it has shown is that a semitic group, known as the Hyksos, established a dynasty there in the Second Intermediate Period...they were rulers not slaves.
150 years of digging in Jerusalem has not revealed any evidence of any great capital city. Jerusalem, until the 7th century BC, was a tiny little shithole of perhaps 1,000 people.
A real archaeologist (as opposed to the bible-thumping fools you apparently believe) Ze'ev Herzog, wrote the following in 1999. Read it and weep. Or more likely run back to your bible and shove your head up your ass like your kind usually do.

Quote:This is what archaeologists have learned from their excavations in the Land of Israel: the Israelites were never in Egypt, did not wander in the desert, did not conquer the land in a military campaign and did not pass it on to the 12 tribes of Israel. Perhaps even harder to swallow is the fact that the united monarchy of David and Solomon, which is described by the Bible as a regional power, was at most a small tribal kingdom. And it will come as an unpleasant shock to many that the God of Israel, Jehovah, had a female consort and that the early Israelite religion adopted monotheism only in the waning period of the monarchy and not at Mount Sinai. Most of those who are engaged in scientific work in the interlocking spheres of the Bible, archaeology and the history of the Jewish people - and who once went into the field looking for proof to corroborate the Bible story - now agree that the historic events relating to the stages of the Jewish people's emergence are radically different from what that story tells.
Actually, diggigs in Egypt have confirmed the biblical story. And the Hyksos as well of course. Ancitent Egyptian manuscripts even contain the confirmation of the river Nile turnign to blood. (Probably some freak red tide or something, I don't know too much about those things). And why the hell does it not talk about a war in egypt when the Hyksos invaded? (Biblical archaeologists claim that that happened straigt after the exodus) Because the Egyptian army had drowned in the red sea.
Have you got a single source for that? Where is the evidence that supports your statement?
I'll tell you now to save you getting shut down in the future: If you make a factual statement about something on these boards if you do not have a source(s) to back it up you are going to be either ignored/ridiculed or insulted.
Quote:And why, minimalist, do you think that the archaeologists that support your theories only are valid, and those that do not are not? I strongly suggest that you take YOUR head outta your ass and have a look around at the vast world outside your rectum.
It's called scientific consensus and demonstrable evidence. If you can present evidence or sources for your claims we may take you seriously, provided they don't come from the first apologist website you stumble upon.
