@Drich, that is a good point about stone IMO. However, there are other problems besides lack of remains found in the Sinai desert. The Biblical timeline puts the Exodus at 1446 BCE. At that time the Sinai and Palestine were Egyptian territories. Also, the numbers of people are absurd, because the estimated population for all of Egypt was only 3.5 million and the Bible describes a group of 2 million Jews fleeing. The column of people would have been 150 miles long marching 10 abreast (according to wikipedia)

Most people assume that the Biblical timeline and numbers are symbolic - even if they think there might be a grain of truth to the myth.
