Re: 400 Years and 80 Years
8) That is too much evidence to be dismissed lightly
It`s not dismissed lightly, it`s thrown aside with force.

Polytheism
Hi,AM, and welcome (if you haven`t been greeted already).
Wasn`t the polytheism of Egypt tied in with various stars, whilst Aknaten reduced it to one (the Sun). If you follow Salibi, he proposed a polytheistic origin to Yahweh with El Elyon, El Shaddai, El Olam, etc., tribal 'object' gods (a mountain, shrine,place,etc.).
IOW, gods of the sky versus gods of the earth.
Re Hindu/Dravidism. Doesn`t that belief have 10,000 gods. Or are they all attributes?
