And all you provided was a youtube video with little to no explanation of what it contained and whether there was any verifiable documented, peer-review, or academic publication to support whatever the claim in it is. You didn't even say who is in the video and whether they are archaeologists, historians, laymen, or who they are.
You react with________________ at any explanation I offer.
DO not ever look at evidence which contradicts established viewpoints.
They why ask Christians anything?

You didn't even answer my questions - I may as well have asked Matt Slick, who I can only assume is your mentor, for all the good it would have done me.
I'd appreciate it if you could answer some of my questions, I'm not trying to bicker with you I'm trying to discuss.
Can you reference any archaeologists or middle-east historians who believe or argue that it's unlikely that evidence in the Sinai peninsular if present would be found?
Do you believe you have an eyewitness account of the Exodus, and if so how is it possible that events both before and after the Sinai crossing are recorded in the same document when all who entered the Sinai perished in the 40-year wait and it was a different generation who left it and entered into Canaan?
Why should I believe against the gradient of clear scientific evidence?
Do you appreciate science and do you think science is important?

"That's disgusting. There were clean athletes out there that have had their whole careers ruined by people like Lance Armstrong who just bended thoughts to fit their circumstances. He didn't look up cheating because he wanted to stop, he wanted to justify what he was doing and to keep that continuing on." - Nicole Cooke
