Christians: Please explain the Exodus
RE: Christians: Please explain the Exodus
Okay - enough with this jesus-freak's attempt to derail.

Here's is William Dever, an actual archaeologist, discussing the issue. It's about 32 minutes of lecture and 15 minutes of questions.

Evidence? Why would we have to do that, you know..there could be like...reasons, that this evidence hasn't been found - and stuff. I'm just going to believe it and hold it to be true, hence it -is- true.

Besides, what would evidence do -for you-? Nada.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Don't be lured into playing a game of words and arguments. Your frustration is showing in passive aggressive ways. Dial it back friend.

ShaMan honestly I am not angry in the slightest way, the entire situation is making me laugh. I said I like to look at things and laugh and I hold true to that statement. If I have insulted anyone in any way I am sorry.

Why are you concerned with evidence all of a sudden?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

No, I don't really care I just want to see where the idea came from.

It ought to make you laugh, because the notion is both absurd and false, the comments we've made are ridiculous. The trouble, is that we're simply parroting your own contributions to this discussion and replacing the exodus proposition with the claim that you are a dog.

Hng... He literally just said "show me some evidence" then two posts later "I don't really care" (about said evidence). Discussion is useless.
