The Old Testament Claims....
#3
RE: The Old Testament Claims....
The Biblical claims of Joshua's conquests and genocide in "The Promised Land' are contradicted by current archaeology,as far as I'm aware. (As indeed is the myth of the Exodus)

Virtually all of the claims of the Old Testament for the "great" jewish state are not supported by or proven wrong by history and archeology

http://freethought.mbdojo.com/archeology.html - The Archeology department of TEL AVIV University has pretty much established the bible to be fairy tales

Jericho did not exist at the supposed time of Joshua.
The jews were not in bondage to Egypt at the supposed time of moses - who also has no basis in reality. There was no Exodus - no wandering in the desert - no great flood - no Adam and eve - no day creation - and there is not a single document that we have - that can be dated to the supposed time of the christ that even mentions that name.
