Re: Objective Observation

Personally I think you need to become objectively (I say objectively) aware of the physical evidence cited in this thread; all of it corroboratively.
Claiming that nobody is objective but you is the antithesis of objectivity.

My last message was a welcoming and advocation to Ludwig, not to rehash what's been covered in the thread.
If you don't want to rehash what's already been covered in the thread, don't rehash the same false accusations that you've been making throughout the thread,.

Re: Artifact Evidence, Etc
So much for the claim that people lived longer back then. It only took forty years to "consume" all of those over twenty years old - a maximum lifespan of sixty years.

In fact the very point the Bible makes is to stress this longevity - something which is obviously miraculous when compared to a normal human lifespan.
As I've already mentioned in the thread, Buzsaw does a lot to undermine the miraculous with ideas like a "land bridge".

Objections were aired about the shallows at Nuweiba. I offered possible scenarios on that....
You haven't offered any explanation as to why God would require shallows.

It's logical to assume that Jehovah would direct his people to the most doable route to and through the sea.
No it isn't. If the route was "doable", the Israelites didn't need God. If it wasn't doable without a miracle, God didn't need to cheat.

Do you know the desert is constantly moving ,ever seen a sandstorm everything disappears.
Almost everything that archaeologists find is buried. Buried doesn't mean gone forever. It just means you have to bring a shovel.

Re: Nuweiba Beach A Delta
Nuweiba writes:
This shows that Nuweiba is a delta.
There's a superficial resemblence to a delta. Where's the evidence that it's composed of sediment from the wadi? And what distinguishes Nuweiba from similar-looking formations on the coast of the Gulf - e.g. at Nabq and Dahab?
