Maybe look up the term before using it in an incorrect way. that way you don't get force fed crow.

Your not in a position to erase or strike the 'exodus narritive' from history. do as you will, it will remain.[/quote]

Show me a evidence of any 3400 year old camp site found in the open desert. Now just because we can not find evidences of a 3400 year old camp site in a desert, does it mean that people back then did not sleep outside of established structures? Or does it mean the organic material in the desert is consumed by sand blasting, heat and sun?
Truthfully, what would last from a campsite after 3400 years, in aplace that consumes whole cities made from stone with out a trace?
so?
It does not matter who you think you are or what you think your an expert at. bottom line, there is a vast region they are claiming absolute knoweledge of over a 4000 year period. To say some definatly did or did not happen without any evidence for or against puts one in a realm of faith. (eitherway.) for me that is what my religion is about. for you and your two super stars, this is sacrilege.
