>You have about as much proof that Exodus didn't happen as present day archeologists have that it did happen. So what's your proof that it did not happen?

First of all, there is archaeological evidence that the Israelites were homegrown, sprouting from the local tribes rather than being a distinct people that invaded. I don't have stuff on the web about this, but I have textbooks from college.

Second, the absence of positive evidence strongly leans towards the negative here. The Egyptians did keep a lot of written records, and there's no record of 600,000 people leaving Egypt, after a series of amazing natural disasters and the entire army of the Pharaoh as well as the first-born son of every Egyptian being killed.
