Such as?
Modern archaeology has dismissed the patriarchs, exodus, the conquest, David, and Solomon. Genesis is an absurd fable.
WTF is left?
Polecat will cite a bunch of holy joes who desperately need this shit to be true so that they still have a job but the evidence is not there.
The shakiest piece of archaeological evidence they have is the Merneptah stele which purports to say "Israel" but in reality says "Ysirir" in Egyptian and it is a word which appears no where else in the entire corpus of Egyptian writing so no one really knows what it means....or who it refers to. Even if it did mean exactly what they want it to mean they carefully neglect the rest of the sentence which says they were exterminated.
Cherry-picking as normal.
