[QUOTE="Quid est Veritas?, post: 70180839, member: 385144"] Again, stone inscriptions cannot be expected to show such things, which leaves perishable papyrus and the numbers would be much less than the millions in the narrative, for which evidence can be so construed. Yet you do not follow my arguments at all and merely restate your own. None of the above. As I said repeatedly, I am saying an Exodus event cannot be excluded completely on current evidence, not that it happened definitively. Please read my posts. I've had this type of discussion on historical boards without issue, but somehow people here do not understand the basics of Historical Criticism. Again not applicable. Please read my posts. Nope, the popularity fallacy refers within any populace, not just the general populace. For instance there is a fallacy prevalent amongst the Medical profession that ARDS is due to hypovolaemia, while pulmonologists will tell you its due to the glycocalyx. Again, a minority view is not immediately excluded and the minority views have been proven correct in the past, so... Legendary retellings tend to do so. Fantastical Mediaeval histories of Julius Caesar spoke of places that had not yet existed. Balkan and Islamic retellings of Alexander the Great speak of Sofia or Baghdad, again which had not existed. This is no impediment at all, in fact expected. ... This is a silly discussion at this point as you are being pointlessly disingenuous. You are not reading what I write at all or ignoring it completely. I am spending my time rewriting what I had already said because you insist on drawing conclusions that I never made and even explicitly repudiated. I am not going to continue responding to this thread as I am wasting my time. I find it strange that people hold such fixed beliefs, but oh well. To quote CS Lewis: "Faith usually involves a degree of subjective certitude which goes beyond the logical certainty, or even the supposed logical certainty, of the arguments employed...This excess of certitude in a settled assent is not at all uncommon. Most of those who believe in uniformity of nature, Evolution or the Solar System share it." This is what is at play here, a great certitude way in excess of the logical support for it, in my opinion. Regardless... Good day, sir. [/QUOTE]
