Re:
Unfortunately, we don't seem to have a shortage of crackpot scientists in our day and age.
Does anyone here remember Ron Wyatt? the seventh day adventist who claimed to have found Noah's Ark, and the Ark of the Covenant, aswell, as the Chariot wheels of Pharoahs army in the Red Sea etc.
Kent Hovind, Carl Baugh,.... etc. All these guys are about as....well, you know.

sea of reads
Yes, that's true.
It was called the sea of reeds.
Red sea is a corruption of the true name.
Red sea, Reed sea, whatever.
I guess people still like to call it the Red Sea because they get a romantic idea of the bloody drowned soldiers of pharoah's army turning the sea red.
funny idea anyways.
